dead code? utils.template()

[mehulkar]

I was trying to trace where in v4, the Ember global is used and it seems that the culprit is this code path:

https://github.com/ember-cli/ember-cli-htmlbars/blob/212cc389cb81c76f14b8e8e4420607332c7f3c8d/lib/utils.js#L189-L193

In v5 and main, this code path is still called

https://github.com/ember-cli/ember-cli-htmlbars/blob/78a29d83b5d2674a929b0e22224f381a8db4149f/lib/ember-addon-main.js#L108-L118

but there is no template() export from lib/utils:

https://github.com/ember-cli/ember-cli-htmlbars/blob/v5.7.2/lib/utils.js#L362-L373 https://github.com/ember-cli/ember-cli-htmlbars/blob/78a29d83b5d2674a929b0e22224f381a8db4149f/lib/utils.js#L371-L382

Is this precompile() method dead code in recent versions?

I think this whole code path is gone from current releases.
