shaarli: Switch from node-uglifyjs-webpack-plugin to node-terser-webpack-plugin

serious about 4 years ago

node-uglifyjs-webpack-plugin is dead since 1.5 years, already carries a
patch to not actually use node-uglifyjs but node-terser, and terser will
soon see a major backwards-incompatible change that will require even
more custom hacks.

It seems this package has only one reverse dependency (webpack) and two
reverse build-dependencies (node-chai and node-webpack).

Seems it is time to replace this package with its successor,
https://github.com/webpack-contrib/terser-webpack-plugin

Setting severity to serious due to the upcoming breaking change to
node-terser.

We will need to package this first.

We can replace it after bullseye.

Since this does not affect bullseye, we should ignore this for bullseye.

Since Praveen says he wants to replace the package *after* bullseye,
it's probably fine to downgrade this bug to "Important" and not have it
as an RC bug before the release. Therefore, downgrading it.

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Bumping severity to serious. We already have node-terser-webpack-plugin
in the archive.

reverse-depends -b node-uglifyjs-webpack-plugin
Reverse-Build-Depends
* node-axios
* q2-demux
* q2-taxa
* shaarli

So once these packages replace their build dependencies, we can request
removal of this package.
