 * You enable this plugin in your config file:

 *
 *        asTests: {Boolean},
 *        excludeURLs: {(String|RegExp)[]}
 *      }]

 *
 * asTests specifies if the plugin should generate passed/failed test results
 * based on the ngHint output or instead log the results to the console.
 * Defaults to true.
 *
 * excludeURLs specifies a list of URLs for which ngHint results should be
 * ignored.  Defaults to []

/*
 * The strategy for this plugin is as follows:
 *
 * During setup, install the ngHint code and listeners to capture its output.
 * Store the output in the following format:
 *    {page URL} -> {module} -> {message} -> {message type}
 *
 * So, for instance, you might have:
 *    {
 *      'google.com': {
 *        'Controllers': {
 *          {'It is against Angular best practices to...': warning}
 *        },
 *        'Modules: {
 *          {'Module "Search" was loaded but does not exist': error}
 *        }
 *      }
 *    }
 *
 * We store the messages as keys in objects in order to avoid duplicates.
