Extension summary

Preface:

Original credit to Ben Kahan. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/appnexus-creative-inserti/ailiopjkbojmmdflhbcedndlomhmhkbk he had the idea

Sadly his extension is outdated since appnexus discontinued the api he was using. So I updated it using the AST API. Also made it always secure and migrated the code to ES6.
