New Workload: TypeScript standalone

[camillobruni]

Runs a in-memory typescript compilation of the immer library.

• npm run build downloads and build src/gen in-memory file contents for 3 different libs (for local testing)
• webpack is used to bundle the results
• There are some type warnings, but all files seem to be loaded

Seems like a good workload, although sadly on it's last legs... I guess it will become a wasm benchmark when the Go transition happens 🙂

Can we add a README.md with the steps to rebuild?

Added README and license.

Looks like this test also has a bunch of comments that have non-latin1 characters in them. We should probably fix that.

That said, I'm a bit conflicted. It seems like this benchmark combines .ts source files into the final script, which seems odd. I would've expected that the .ts files we're going to parse/compile would come from side files that are loaded into JS strings and subsequently get passed to the typescript compiler. If those source files were non-latin1, I'd be fine with that but since they're mixed with the typescript compiler itself (IIUC, anyway) that seems harder.

Fair point, let me change that to something where we load the resources (.ts sources) separately and feed them as JS strings to TypeScriptCompileTest.compileTest();. That's also more in line with how other workloads currently handle resources, and it makes it easier to swap out the source projects for local testing.

• Updated the benchmark to load the config fils (tsconfig.json and files.json) separate and feed them to the TS compiler
• Updated webpack to use the UnicodeEscapePlugin just to be sure (will double check again after landing the 2-byte test)
