JavaScript Context
A JavaScript context is created for an Add-on to isolate the JavaScript environment from other Add-ons.
This context is not persisted across sessions or clients.
It is destroyed when the Add-on is removed and recreated when the Add-on is updated.
The onInit event for the Add-on should be used to create any JavaScript objects that need to be created on startup of the Add-on.
It is believed that the JavaScript context created uses the namespace string of the Add-on library, but this is not documented (currently, as of 2023-11-14).
