New

A new setting in "Filter lists" pane to control whether uBO should wait for all filter lists to be loaded before unsuspending network activity.

By default, at browser launch uBO waits for all filter lists to be loaded before unsuspending network activity so as to ensure web pages are properly filtered at launch.

The new setting allows to opt out of network activity suspension at launch, i.e. allowing web pages to load without waiting for filter lists to be fully loaded, of course at the cost of potentially not filtering properly those web pages.

Notable commits without an entry in the issue tracker:

• Add setting to control suspension on network activity at launch
  
• Fix broken suspendTabsUntilReady for Chromium-based browsers
  
• Make FilterJustOrigin derive from FilterOriginHitSet
