This PR changes the underlying buffer backed AST format we use for
JavaScript-based linting plugins. It adds support for various new types,
makes traversal code a lot easier and is more polished compared to
previous iterations.
Here is a quick summary (in no particular order):
- Node prop data is separate from traversal, which makes traversal code
so much easier to reason about. Previously, it was interleaved with node
prop data
- spans are in a separate table as well, as they are rarely needed.
- schema is separate from SWC conversion logic, which makes
- supports recursive plain objects
- supports numbers
- supports bigint
- supports regex
- adds all SWC nodes
Apologies, this is kinda a big PR, but it's worth it imo.
_Marking as draft because I need to update some tests tomorrow._
