v14 breaking changes

[josdejong]

This issue will keep track on the various discussions we have about the architectural changes we want to implement in mathjs v14. Please comment if there are more topics to discuss

• [ ] TypeScript support:
  • Status: proposal to go for a hybrid JS+TS approach
  • Discussion: https://github.com/josdejong/typed-function/issues/123
• [ ] The core architecture with factory functions
  • Status: @gwhitney has created a satisfying POC with an alternative core architecture that solves the current pain points, see https://code.studioinfinity.org/glen/pocomath
  • Discussions:
    • [x] base concept: https://github.com/josdejong/mathjs/discussions/2741
    • [ ] the exact API: https://code.studioinfinity.org/glen/pocomath/issues/55
• [x] #3222 prevent math.import(...) from overriding units unless you specify { override: true }.

I've been thinking about the promises support. Perhaps we could get some of the old and new discussions and work on it in this release or a next one?

Definitely!
