govuk_publishing_components has govuk-frontend as a dependency. govuk-frontend v5 now targets browsers that support ES6. This means that the UMD modules used in govuk_publsihing_components from govuk-frontend use features of ES6 and so it means that Uglifier can't be used anymore because it only supports ES5. As well as installing terser and updating the config, this commit also contains a patch for getting terser working. Sprockets doesn't have an built-in loader for terser so we need to add this functionality.
To prevent browsers evaluating JS that isn't supported, components that contain code from govuk-frontend have been moved to a separate file `es6-components.js` which is included in `application.html.erb` as a script tag with `type="module"`.
In govuk-frontend v5, the `init` function is now called when a module is created. This meant changing how the `initAll()` function works in govuk_publishing_components so that it does not call `init()` when initialising components JavaScript. It also meant moving `init` functions in components to the constructor to bring them in line with the new way of initialising.
- Remove $legacy attribute in govuk-colour - Remove $govuk-compatibility-govuktemplate - Remove $govuk-new-link-styles
