Use AbortController

Minor refactoring involving AbortController for event handler removal. This is an internal change not affecting the public interface in any way.

Respect the `hidden` attribute

Fix for a minor bug related to the case of applying the hidden attribute to a <handy-scroll> element (some details).

Minor update of docs and package metadata

Update the “Installation and import” section in README. Update package metadata.

Make handy-scroll a web component

Architecture and APIs of the widget have been revised radically by turning handy-scroll into a modern web component. Using of the handy-scroll component has become much simpler and mostly as declarative as using other HTML elements. Please refer the project’s README for details of the new way of using the component. The project’s webpage contains updated live demos (you may also play with these demos on codepen.io).

Caution

Version 2 of the handy-scroll component is backwards-incompatible with the version 1. If you still target older browsers which lack full support of the modern Web Components technologies, please stay on the version 1: it’s still available but is in the maintenance mode.
