Hext for WebAssembly

Hext Emscripten v1.0.1
See html-extract/hext-emscripten for more.

Changes

• Language bindings: rule.extract now supports the optional parameter max_searches, which is of type unsigned int. The search for matching elements is aborted after this limit is reached. The default is 0, which never aborts. If running untrusted hext templates, I recommend setting max_searches to some high value, like 10000, to protect against resource exhaustion.
• Consistent versions: htmlext, libhext and pypi now share the same version number, enforced by CI. The NPM package has the same version but incremented by 10.
• Refactored build and CI scripts

Hext v1.0.0

Changes

• New syntax: Nested rules ( #22 )

  # match <div> elements that have a descendant <a> at any depth
  <div> { <a/> } </div>
  

• Abort extraction after a specified amount of searches (4dff797): Added a new parameter max_searches to Rule::extract and htmlext. It is disabled by default (value 0). If running untrusted hext templates, I recommend setting max_searches to some high value, like 10000, to protect against resource exhaustion. Nested rules can cause nasty runtime performance (see #22 for an example).

Hext v0.8.2

Notable but minor changes:

• Removed libhext's custom Doxygen theme (93dab11).
