JavaScript sources

Replace the old XML sources system by TypeScript sources.

Those sources are more easily updatable (they do not require any compilation or new release of Grabber). Also, given JavaScript is a pretty accessible language and those model.js files are self-contained, it will be easier for contributors to add or fix sources by themselves, without needing to dive into Grabber's C++ source.

v5.5.2

⚠️ If you use the %all% token, there has been a change in this release: duplicate tags are no longer removed from it. If you use a filename such as "%all% - %general%", it used to not include general tags in the "%all%" part. Now, you'll have duplicates. To return to the previous behavior, a new option has been added, "ignorenamespace", which can be used as follows: "%all:ignorenamespace=general% - %general%". More verbose, but less magic.
