denort is an optimization to "deno compile" to produce slightly smaller
output. It's a decent idea, but causes a lot of negative side-effects:
- Deno's link time is a source of constant agony both locally and in CI,
denort doubles link time.
- The release process is a long and arduous undertaking with many manual
steps. denort necessitates an additional manual zip + upload from M1
apple computers.
- The "deno compile" interface is complicated with the "--lite" option.
This is confusing for uses ("why wouldn't you want lite?").
The benefits of this feature do not outweigh the negatives. We must find
a different approach to optimizing "deno compile" output.
This commit adds new binary target called "denort".
It is a "lite" version of "deno" binary that can only execute
code embedded inside the binary itself.

This commit removes "js" module from "cli".
It contained stuff related to TypeScript compiler (snapshot,
declaration files) and thus it was moved to "tsc" module.
This commit does major refactor of "Worker" and "WebWorker",
in order to decouple them from "ProgramState" and "Flags".
The main points of interest are "create_main_worker()" and
"create_web_worker_callback()" functions which are responsible
for creating "Worker" and "WebWorker" in CLI context.
As a result it is now possible to factor out common "runtime"
functionality into a separate crate.
- Fixes cargo publish on deno_typescript, deno_cli_snapshots, and
deno_cli.
- Combines cli_snapshots and js into one directory.
- Extracts TS version at compile time rather than runtime
- Bumps version awkwardly - it was necessary to test end-to-end
publishing. Sorry.
- Adds git submodule deno_typescript/typescript
