 * In this file we implement a fetch()-from-background-script service. Code in
50
 * other parts of the extension shall call sendMessage() with arguments to
51
 * fetch() and code here will call fetch() with those arguments and send back
52
 * the response.
53
 *
54
 * We have to convert the Response from fetch() into a JSON-ifiable value and
55
 * then convert it back (using Response() constructor) due (among others) the
56
 * limitations of Chromium's messaging API:
57
 * https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Chrome_incompatibilities#data_cloning_algorithm
58
 *
59
 * We also catch possible errors from fetch() (e.g. in case of an invalid URL)
60
 * and send their data in JSON-ifiable form so that the error object can be
61
 * later re-created.
