In RinteRface/charpente: Seamlessly design robust 'shiny' extensions

charpente 0.7.1

Enhanced esbuild configuration to allow component based bundling. build_js now accepts an entry_points argument to specify the entry files processed by esbuild. The (minified) output files will correspond to the given entry files. The default is monolithic building with the ./srcjs/main.js file. See ?build_js for more details.

Allow to initialise esbuild and mocha in a standalone way, without the need of the full charpente workflow. This is useful if you want to use esbuild and its plugins in already existing projects. See ?set_esbuild and ?set_mocha for more details.

Move use_build_ignore() and use_git_ignore() calls to set_esbuild() to enable standalone usage.

Include Sass handling. SCSS files are sorted in the /stylesfolder and esbuild has new Sass modules to treat them and generate CSS. package.json now calls node esbuild.dev.js or node esbuild.prod.js, depending on the selected mode, that is production or development. esbuild.**.js is a new script which will be processed at run time in your project, before being called by node in package.json. If you come from an older {charpente} version, build_js() will first try to create a /styles folder (which you normally don't have) and install missing Sass dependencies next to esbuild (esbuild-sass-plugin, postcss, autoprefixer).
get_dependency_assets() leverages the new jsdlivr algorithm to infer the best entry point scripts for JS and CSS files, when downloading dependencies within create_dependency(). This likely will change your vendors dependencies scripts names but should not change the features.
charpente_options() will likely be deprecated because of the previous point. It still contains the local option to either point to external CDN or copy external vendore files into the local project.
create_css() has been replaced by create_scss() (you can still use golem::create_css). There is one main SCSS file created at project setup. Other SCSS files are referenced into this main styles/main.scss using @import path, which will allow you to have modular Sass code.
Remove entry_point param from build_js() as it was not used anyway...
