* Native ES modules
This is a major refactor of internal compiler.
Before: JS and TS both were sent through the typescript compiler where
their imports were parsed and handled. Both compiled to AMD JS and
finally sent to V8
Now: JS is sent directly into V8. TS is sent through the typescript
compiler, but tsc generates ES modules now instead of AMD. This
generated JS is then dumped into V8.
This should much faster for pure JS code. It may improve TS compilation
speed.
In the future this allows us to separate TS out of the runtime heap and
into its own dedicated snapshot. This will result in a smaller runtime
heap, and thus should be faster.
Some tests were unfortunately disabled to ease landing this patch:
1. compiler_tests.ts which I intend to bring back in later commits.
2. Some text_encoding_test.ts tests which made the file invalid utf8.
See PR for a discussion.
Also worth noting that this is necessary to support WASM
This adds the ability to spawn additional Isolates from Rust and send
and receive messages from them. This is preliminary work to support
running the typescript compiler in a separate isolate and thus support
native ES modules. Ref #975.
This reverts commit e976b3e041.
There is nothing technically wrong with this commit, but it's adding
complexity to a big refactor (native ES modules #975). Since it's not
necessary and simply a philosophical preference, I will revert for now
and try to bring it back later.
- Improves speed and binary size significantly.
- Makes deno_last_exception() output a JSON structure.
- Isolate::execute and Isolate::event_loop now return
structured, mapped JSError objects on errors.
- Removes libdeno functions:
libdeno.setGlobalErrorHandler()
libdeno.setPromiseRejectHandler()
libdeno.setPromiseErrorExaminer()
