Migrate the usage of CommonJS specific code and imports to ESM. Roughly
summarised this:
- Changes all require() calls to import statement or expressions.
- Changes usage of module.exports to export statements.
- Replaces require.resolve with import.meta.resolve.
- Replaces conditional imports with conditional subpath imports.
- Replaces module === require.main with import.meta.main.
- Adds the full filename with extention to all relative imports.
- Changes all usage of __dirname and __filename to their import.meta
equivalents.
- Sets "type": "module" in package.json files.
- Removes usage of "use strict".
- Adds .ts an an alias of .js for the webpack build.
Due to differences in how require and import resolves files the plugin
entrypoints will have to include the filename and extension after this
migration in order to work.
Clean up the configuration for compiling TypeScript for the Web
interface to us its own tsconfig.web.json config files and reference the
TypeScript source files directly in the configuration and imports
instead of files compiled to dist.
To properly support recompliation with TypeScript's projects feature
each package's tsconfig.web.json file is set to output the build to
dist/web_build which is then ignored in .npmignore. Webpack is still
used to create the proper build in dist/web, so this is mainly to make
TypeScipt's compiler happy but it also allows the root tsconfig.json
file to include the web interface code, meaning running the build script
now also checks the typing of the web interface.
Final part of #491.
