  • A new Extension base class supports both Peas plugins and web extensions
  • Preferences renders a list based on Extension instead of Peas' PluginManagerView
  • Separate loading and activation of web extensions
  • Allow loading of web extensions at runtime
  • Support icon and description for web extensions

Note: disabling of web extensions is not implemented here, a restart is still required.

Screenshot from 2019-09-18 20-31-19

On the screenshot you can't really "see" it unless you recognize the names of some of the Firefox example extensions. Web extensions don't look special, but they look the same as Gtk-based extensions. More importantly you can manage them in the GUI now.

You can test this by trying Borderify or Beastify by copying them to ~/.local/share/midori/extensions. (note that bugs with the extension itself won't be covered here, this is only about seeing if you can see them in the preferences and activate or deactive them).
