[HTTPS-Everywhere] New (Bugfix) Release 2017.8.31

[William Budington]

There is a new release for HTTPS Everywhere out today.

From the changelog:

2017.8.31
  * Add counter badge to indicate how many rulesets are active
  * Use Map instead of Object for targets (improves lookups)
  * Fix race condition with persistent storage
  * Ruleset updates

This is a bugfix release to fix a race condition for retrieving global options.  You are advised to update if you use the "Block all unencrypted requests" functionality, or have encountered problems with high-level preferences not persisting after restarting the browser.

This bugfix only effects browsers using `sync` storage.  Tor Browser is not affected.

Download from the usual places.
