About Unity Answers $$anonymous$$ fix

For years, the popular game development forum answers.unity.com has been plagued by a hack that replaced all instances of "hi" with the string "$$anonymous$$" . In some instances this makes the post unreadable. This extensions restores the original text by executing a single string replacement line of javascript.
