📄 Description

Hello i saw an issue (#332) from @TheWitheredStriker and i think i have a fix for it.

I think the issue is that in for example:
google.com##a[href*="story.com"]:upward(2):remove()
the * in [href*="story.com"] takes all text before and including story.com and that includes alternatehistory.com

changing the * to an $ makes sure it only include strings that exactly ends in 'story.com'

see issue #332 for details
