%host% is a regression to some degree... though is useful, and is in need of
a replacement. Given 2.0 is a breaking API release, it was removed.
Rationale is that its logic was being sprinkled throughout the code, with
the substitution coming from gadget.getContext().getHost(). IMO better would
be to have a more general injected context object that, for instance,
ContainerConfig would use.

To support it in the interim, you can subclass DefaultJsUriManager and
perform the replacement:
Uri uri = super.makeExternJsUri();
if (uri.toString().contains("%host%")) {
  uri = new UriBuilder(uri.replaceAll("%host%",
gadget.getContext().getHost())).toUri();
}
return uri;

%js% was replaced with a better-structured host/path based config mechanism.
Let me know if there's a use case its removal breaks.
