overlookmotel a4478e960a feat(codegen): add oxc-codegen package (#25488)
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.
