*misc*
- now that we don't need the jquery-release script and
now that we no longer need to build on Node 10, we can
use ESM in all files in the build folder
- move dist wrappers to "wrappers" folders for easy removal
of all built files
- limit certain workflows to the main repo (not forks)
- version in package.json has been set to beta.1 so that
the next release will be beta.2
- release-it added the `preReleaseBase` option and we
now always set it to `1` in the npm script. This is
a noop for stable releases.

We cannot pass a single file via the `module` condition as then
`require( "jquery" )` will not return jQuery but instead the module object
with `default`, `$` & `jQuery` as keys. Instead:
1. For Node.js, detected via the `node` condition:
1. Expose a regular CommonJS version to `require`
2. Expose a tiny wrapper over CommonJS to `import`
2. For bundlers, detected via the `module` condition:
1. Expose a regular ESM version to `import`
2. Expose a tiny wrapper over ESM to `require`
3. If neither Node.js nor bundlers are detected (no `node` or `module`
conditions`):
1. Expose a regular CommonJS version to `require`
2. Expose a regular ESM version to `import`
The reasons for such definitions are as follows:
1. In Node.js, one can synchronously import from a CommonJS file inside of
an ESM one but not vice-versa. To use an ESM file in a CommonJS one,
a dynamic import is required and that forces asynchronicity.
2. In some bundlers CommonJS is not necessarily enabled - e.g. in Rollup without
the CommonJS plugin. Therefore, the ESM version needs to be pure ESM.
However, bundlers allow synchronously calling `require` on an ESM file. This
is possible since bundlers merge the files before they are passed to
the browser to execute and the final bundles no longer contain async import
code.
3. Bare ESM & CommonJS versions are provided to non-Node non-bundler
environments where we cannot assume interoperability between ESM & CommonJS
is supported.
4. Bare versions cannot be supplied to Node or bundlers as projects using both
ESM & CommonJS to fetch jQuery would result in duplicate jQuery instances,
leading to increased JS size and disjoint data storage.
In addition to the above changes, the `script` condition has been dropped. Only
Webpack documents this condition and it's not clear when exactly it's triggered.
Adding support for a new condition can be added later without a breaking change;
removing is not so easy.
The `production` & `development` conditions have been removed as well. They were
not really applied correctly; we'd need to provide both of them to each current
leaf which would double the size of the definition for the `.` & `./slim` entry
points. In jQuery, the only difference between development & production builds
is minification; there are no logic changes so we can pass unminified versions
to all the tooling, expecting minification down the line.
As for the factory entry points:
1. Node.js always gets the CommonJS version
2. Bundlers always get the ESM version
3. Other tools take the ESM version when using `import` and the CommonJS when
using `require`.
The complexity is lower than for the `.` & `./slim` entry points because there's
no default export to handle so Node/bundler wrapper files are not necessary.
Other changes:
* Tests: Change "node:assert" to "node:assert/strict"; the former is deprecated
* Docs: Mention that the CommonJS module doesn't expose named exports
* Tests: Run Node & bundler tests for all the above cases
Fixes gh-5416
Closes gh-5429
This is a complete rework of our testing infrastructure. The main goal is to modernize and drop deprecated or undermaintained dependencies (specifically, grunt, karma, and testswarm). We've achieved that by limiting our dependency list to ones that are unlikely to drop support any time soon. The new dependency list includes:
- `qunit` (our trusty unit testing library)
- `selenium-webdriver` (for spinning up local browsers)
- `express` (for starting a test server and adding middleware)
- express middleware includes uses of `body-parser` and `raw-body`
- `yargs` (for constructing a CLI with pretty help text)
- BrowserStack (for running each of our QUnit modules separately in all of our supported browsers)
- `browserstack-local` (for opening a local tunnel. This is the same package still currently used in the new Browserstack SDK)
- We are not using any other BrowserStack library. The newest BrowserStack SDK does not fit our needs (and isn't open source). Existing libraries, such as `node-browserstack` or `browserstack-runner`, either do not quite fit our needs, are under-maintained and out-of-date, or are not robust enough to meet all of our requirements. We instead call the [BrowserStack REST API](https://github.com/browserstack/api) directly.
## BrowserStack Runner
- automatically retries individual modules in case of test failure(s)
- automatically attempts to re-establish broken tunnels
- automatically refreshes the page in case a test run has stalled
- runs all browsers concurrently and uses as many sessions as are available under the BrowserStack plan. It will wait for available sessions if there are none.
- supports filtering the available list of browsers by browser name, browser version, device, OS, and OS version (see `npm run test:unit -- --list-browsers` for more info). It will retrieve the latest matching browser available if any of those parameters are not specified.
- cleans up after itself (closes the local tunnel, stops the test server, etc.)
- Requires `BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME` and `BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY` environment variables.
## Selenium Runner
- supports running any local browser as long as the driver is installed, including support for headless mode in Chrome, FF, and Edge
- supports running `basic` tests on the latest [jsdom](https://github.com/jsdom/jsdom#readme), which can be seen in action in this PR (see `test:browserless`)
- Node tests will run as before in PRs and all non-dependabot branches, but now includes tests on real Safari in a GH actions macos image instead of playwright-webkit.
- can run multiple browsers and multiple modules concurrently
Other notes:
- Stale dependencies have been removed and all remaining dependencies have been upgraded with a few exceptions:
- `sinon`: stopped supporting IE in version 10. But, `sinon` has been updated to 9.x.
- `husky`: latest does not support Node 10 and runs on `npm install`. Needed for now until git builds are migrated to GitHub Actions.
- `rollup`: latest does not support Node 10. Needed for now until git builds are migrated to GitHub Actions.
- BrowserStack tests are set to run on each `main` branch commit
- `debug` mode leaves Selenium browsers open whether they pass or fail and leaves browsers with test failures open on BrowserStack. The latter is to avoid leaving open too many sessions.
- This PR includes a workflow to dispatch BrowserStack runs on-demand
- The Node version used for most workflow tests has been upgraded to 20.x
- updated supportjQuery to 3.7.1

- new custom build command using yargs
- compare size of minified/gzip built files
- pretest scripts, including qunit-fixture, babel transpilation, and npmcopy
- node smoke tests
- promises aplus tests
- new watch task using `rollup.watch` directly
Also:
- upgraded husky and added the new lint command
- updated lint config to use new "flat" config format. See https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/configuration-files-new
- Temporarily disabled one lint rule until flat config is supported by eslint-plugin-import. See https://github.com/import-js/eslint-plugin-import/issues/2556
- committed package-lock.json
- updated all test scripts to use the new build
- added an express test server that uses middleware-mockserver (this can be used to run tests without karma)
- build-all-variants is now build:all
Close gh-5318
npm 5, even the version included in the latest Node.js 8.5.0 re-generates
`package-lock.json` on each install. And when it does on a system that doesn't
support all the optional dependencies that are supported on the OS where the
lockfile was generated, it removes those optional deps from the lockfile.
The effect is that everyone firing `npm install` on our repo on any OS other
than macOS will immediately get a dirty state of the repo as the `fsevents`
dependency subtree gets removed from `package-lock.json`. That's a really bad
experience.
This commit removes package-lock.json from the repository and adds it to
.gitignore. We'll start committing the file again once the issue is resolved
on npm's part.
