This upgrades nearly all packages to their latest versions. Due to the upgrades, some errors and breaking changes came up. These were fixed as follows:
Use Partial<CodeTour> (and appropriate conditionals) to allow deletion of the usually required CodeTour.id property before serialization.
Do not pass atBegin parameter to debounce anymore. The default is false anyway and throttle-debounce has made it an optional trailing parameter.
Additional package notes are below.
@types/axios
The @types/axios package is now unnecessary, as axios provides its own type definitions.
@types/vscode
For now keep @types/vscode on the old version, aligned with the declared VS Code engine.
@vscode/vsce
The vsce package is deprecated in favor of the @vscode/vsce package. Upgrading also helpfully resolves a security vulnerability (due to an older markdown-it package dependency).
tslint
The tslint package is deprecated in favor of eslint.
webpack
When using Node 17+, the webpack commands fail with the error ERR_OSSL_EVP_UNSUPPORTED. The solution given by miken32 on StackOverflow does not work with VS Code since Electron allows only a subset of NODE_OPTIONS. We should instead upgrade to the latest webpack which works properly with OpenSSL 3.
