JS: add persistent storage taint steps

 * Support for popular libraries has been improved. Consequently, queries may produce more results on code bases that use the following features:
   - client-side code, for example [React](https://reactjs.org/)
+  - cookies and webstorage, for example [js-cookie](https://github.com/js-cookie/js-cookie)
   - server-side code, for example [hapi](https://hapijs.com/)
 
+* The taint tracking library now recognizes flow through persistent storage, this may give more results for the security queries.

 ## New queries
