This PR serves two purposes, First off it would lower the amount of characters we have to type in for a simple operation such as wrapping an expression in a vector. Secondly, it would follow the generated names more closely since nowhere else in the builder we do have `new_xxx`, We always say `xxx` since a builder always constructs something. ``` new_vec -> vec new_vec_single -> vec1* new_vec_from_iter -> vec_from_iter new_vec_with_capacity -> vec_with_capacity new_str -> str new_atom -> atom ``` `*` This one is the main motivation behind this PR, It saves 10 characters! |

Minifier
A JavaScript minifier has three components:
- printer
- mangler
- 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
