Release major version of Reffy - v17.0.0

Breaking change:
- Switch to ECMAScript modules ([#1628](#1628))

Reffy now exports values using ECMAScript modules. This creates two breaking
changes:

1. If your code needs to import values from Reffy, you will need to switch to
ECMAScript modules too, or use a dynamic import.
2. The exported `getSchemaValidationFunction` is now asynchronous.

The change does not affect the command-line interface.
