LibreJS 7.14 released

[Ruben Rodriguez]

GNU LibreJS aims to address the JavaScript problem described in Richard
Stallman's article The JavaScript Trap*. LibreJS is a free add-on for
GNU IceCat and other Mozilla-based browsers. It blocks nonfree
nontrivial JavaScript while allowing JavaScript that is free and/or
trivial. * https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.en.html

Version 7.14 is an extensive bugfix release that builds on the work done
by Nathan Nichols, Nyk Nyby and Zach Wick to port LibreJS to the new
WebExtensions format, and previously on the contributions by Loic Duros
and myself among others.
