overlookmotel 3858221f45 refactor(global): sort imports (#7883)
Pure refactor. Re-order imports for clarity:

1. `std`
2. External crates
3. `oxc_*` crates
4. Current crate `use crate::...`
5. Super `use super::...`
6. Local modules

This order is from "furthest away" to "closest". This makes it clearer to see what is coming from where.

`cargo +nightly fmt` (#7877) did a lot of the work, but unfortunately `rustfmt` does not have an option to (a) put workspace crates in a separate block from external crates and (b) move `mod` statements to after `use` statements.

Minifier

A JavaScript minifier has three components:

  1. printer
  2. mangler
  3. compressor

Mangler

The mangler implementation is part of the SymbolTable residing in oxc_semantic. It is responsible for shortening variables. Its algorithm should be gzip friendly.

The printer is also responsible for printing out the shortened variable names.

Compressor

The compressor is responsible for rewriting statements and expressions for minimal text output. Terser is a good place to start for learning the fundamentals.

Terser Tests
