Port list download code to JS

[hlqviet]

I wish I could remove all the shell scripts but for the sake of compatibility 🥲

The names whitelist.csv and input.csv shouldn't be completely removed for compatibility with older versions (maybe add a fallback?). And I think it'll be a good idea to just go all-in on Node.js for allow/blocklist downloads and replace the contents of get_recommended_*.sh with node [script].js commands so the lists can be downloaded on any system, including Windows.

Hmm... Let me revert the name changes then.

Edit: But wait, aren't they generated by the shell scripts and we already updated them?

[mrrfv]

Fair enough. I didn't notice that. There's still a probability that the script's going to break for people using their own lists though.

Hmm... Let me revert the name changes then.

No need to revert them, just dynamically adjust the name of files being used based on which one exists. You can use fs.existsSync() for that.

So here it is 😁

May want to add to the README that these scripts support hosts, domain and adblock formats but work best with wildcard domain (without asterisk) format now.

Thanks! I’m feeling guilty for burdening you with so many requests, but there’s one more tiny thing. Could you please make it so that the download_lists Node script grabs both allowlists and blocklists when it’s run with no arguments? That’d be good for convenience.

[hlqviet]

Alright. Those requests just make the scripts work better so there's nothing guilty.

Thanks for contributing so much :)
