The Chrome MV3 service worker is terminated after roughly 30 seconds idle,
which destroyed both recurring jobs: the 60-second balance refresh and the
24-hour phishing blocklist refresh were setInterval schedules, so in
practice each ran only while the worker happened to be alive. The phishing
delta was persisted to localStorage, which does not exist in a service
worker, so on Chrome it was never persisted at all.
Both jobs now run off the extension alarms API in the new
src/shared/alarms.js: the browser holds the schedule and wakes the worker to
deliver it. The balance refresh is one minute and the phishing refresh is
1440 minutes, both whole minutes at or above the one-minute minimum, so
neither is silently clamped. Alarms are created only when missing, because
creating one restarts its period and the startup path runs on every wake.
The phishing delta and the timestamp of the fetch that produced it now live
in extension storage, and updatePhishingList() reloads that record before
deciding whether a fetch is due. A revived worker therefore neither
re-fetches on every wake nor sleeps through an overdue update. The 256 KiB
cap covers the whole record: an oversized delta is dropped together with its
timestamp so the next start fetches again.
The startup path (ensureRecurringAlarms plus the phishing list init) is
registered on onInstalled and onStartup as well as running at the top level
of the worker, and is idempotent.
Firefox MV2 has a persistent background page where timers would have
survived, but both browsers are built from one bundle and both take the
alarm path, so there is a single code path; "alarms" is declared in both
manifests.
src/shared/ens.js keeps its localStorage cache and gains a comment recording
that it is popup-only, so it does not get pulled into the worker later.
Expands the confirm-tx warning system with three new warning types, all using the existing `visibility:hidden/visible` pattern from PR #98 (no animations, no layout shift).
## Changes
1. **Scam address list expanded** (7 → 652 addresses): Sourced from [MyEtherWallet/ethereum-lists](https://github.com/MyEtherWallet/ethereum-lists) darklist (MIT license). Checked synchronously before sending.
2. **Contract address warning**: When the recipient is a smart contract (detected via `getCode`), shows a warning that sending directly to a contract may result in permanent loss of funds.
3. **Null/burn address warning**: Detects known burn addresses (`0x0000...0000`, `0x...dead`, `0x...deadbeef`) and warns that funds are permanently destroyed.
4. **No-history warning** (existing from #98): Unchanged, still shows for EOAs with zero transaction history.
All warnings use reserved-space `visibility:hidden/visible` elements — no layout shift, no animations.
