Currently, running npm run compile takes a while (> 1 minute on my computer). This long build time even more noticeable when running the tests, since the script to run the tests always re-compiles/bundles the extension before running the tests. It would be nice to investigate ways to reduce this compile time to make it easier to develop the extension.

One option worth investigating is esbuild, which claims to be 100x faster than webpack

I'm interested in taking a look into this this sprint if I have time (I'll prioritize other issues first)

This PR uses esbuild instead of webpack to bundle the webviews.
This dramatically reduces the time it takes to bundle the webviews,
from >50 seconds to <1 second.

This PR also modifies the npm scripts and VS Code launch configurations
to always recompile the webviews before launching.

I also set up eslint to be run before launching the extension.
If the extension seems slower to launch in debug mode, this is why.

Closes redhat-developer#2875
