The lib library was written with the assumption that there's only one
copy of it in the whole application and everything imports that one
copy. Unfortunately there are quite a few circumstances were package
managers end up installing multiple copies of lib and then different
parts use different versions of the library.
This causes Clusterio to break with strange and hard to track down
errors. Most notably permissions and link messages for a plugin may get
registered to one copy of lib while the controller uses a different copy
and thus does not see or register that what the plugin added exists.
Detect this condition when importing @clusterio/lib and throw an error
when it has been imported twice in order to prevent the broken
installation from causing future hard to debug issues.
Implement the shorthand notations that Factorio recognises for colours
where individual components may be left out or the colour specified as
an array of values instead of an object.
Use dist/browser as the output of the browser oriented TypeScript build
of packages instead of dist/web/build. This distinguishes it better
from the Web UI bundle which is put together with webpack.
Rename the config files for the browser build of modules to better
communicate that it's purpose is to compile code for a browser
environment rather than the Web UI in particular. This also aligns with
the "browser" option in package.json, the existing browser.ts entrypoint
in lib, and how the browser environment is typically referred to.
