I finally found the time to commit the changes to the hamburger menu discussed in this post:

https://fossil-scm.org/forum/forumpost/2abe305c2d

While at it, I have also updated the default skin to support customization of the hamburger menu through the header.txt file, and the sitemap is only loaded if the menu would otherwise be empty.

The check-ins are here:

https://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/timeline?&r=js-hamburger-menu

(The work was scattered over multiple days, but the compact period of check-in time stamps is due to transferring the patches to the "live" repository in one go by scripting.)

As the changes only affect skin and documentation files (and not C source code files), they can be tested locally without rebuilding Fossil from source code: download the modified default skin files and launch a Fossil server with the --skin option (note: also requires at least one forward slash on Windows, i.e. fossil ui --skin ./path\to\skin-files).

I have performed careful tests, according to the template of the initial hamburger menu browser test matrix from this post:

https://fossil-scm.org/forum/forumpost/7b08115de712a

The patch to close the menu by ESC or by clicking outside was tested separately from the rest, and the customization feature was tested with various configurations. Current test results are as follows:

Browser	Pass?	Commentary
IE8	--	Not re-tested
IE9	Partial	The customized menu works, as querySelector() is not called; single-column layout
IE10	Yes	Somewhat unbridled column breaks with the customized menu
IE11	Yes
Edge	Yes
SM 2.25	--	Not tested
SM 2.49.4	--	Not tested
Firefox 12	--	Not tested
Firefox 21esr	--	Not tested
Firefox 43esr	--	Not tested
Firefox 47esr	--	Not tested
Firefox 52esr	--	Not tested
Firefox 62	Yes	Column breaks are also fixed
Konqueror 5	Yes
Safari	--	No version of Safari tested, so far
Chrome 49	Partial	Single-column layout
Chrome 71	Yes

Comments and changes to code and documentation are welcome (content-related or of grammatical nature), as well as additions to the test results.
