[MV2] Temporary fix for the unique tab feature
The unique tab feature doesn't work correctly in the MV2 variant of the
extension.
This CL fixes this by changing how the data managed by the
sessionStorage class is stored in the MV2 variant:
- Before, it was saved in the window object, which was erased each time
the background script was turned inactive by the browser. This
behavior was fine for most data, but not for the "translatorTab" data,
which is why there was this bug.
- Now, it's saved in the persisted "local" storage area. For more
information about this behavior, read the comment added to the
//src/common/sessionStorage_mv2.js file.
