`oxc-codegen`'s current API requires passing in a `SourceMapGenerator` as an option to generate source maps. This is currently really slow, and I imagine we'll want to generate source maps internally (perhaps in Rust), and return a source map string from `printSync` instead.
Alter `printSync`'s return type now, to support that without a breaking change later.
- Before: `function printSync(node: ESTree.Node, options?: Options): string`
- After: `function printSync(node: ESTree.Node, options?: Options): { code: string }`
Later on, it can return `{ code: string, map: string }` and that won't break existing users.
Add `oxc-codegen` package - a printer written in TS.
### Features
- Prints JS, JSX, TS, TSX.
- Matches `oxc_codegen` exactly on all Test262, TypeScript, Acorn-JSX fixtures.
- Very fast.
### Deficiencies
- Pretty-printing only (no compact/minified output).
- No support for printing comments.
- Source map support is semi-there, but largely untested, and poor API (design doc has some ideas on how to improve it).
### This PR adds
- The printer code.
- Conformance testing infra.
- Further tests for edge cases.
- README.
- Design doc - how it differs from `oxc_codegen` and why, what produces the perf.
### This PR doesn't add
- Not integrated into CI or release pipeline.
### Notes
This started as a slop port of `oxc_codegen`. I've iterated on that base, cleaned it up a lot, and at least skimmed through all of it. I think it's in fairly decent shape.
The design doc is I think worth a read. It explains the rationale for the choices, in particular the "1 codebase, 4 builds" approach.
I've put it in a new top-level directory called `packages`. It's not an app, so didn't seem to me to fit alongside `apps/oxlint` and `apps/oxfmt`. It's pure JS, so not like e.g. `napi/parser`. And it felt too heavyweight to put into `npm` dir. But maybe there's a better place for it.
