- Prefer
[window.location.assign](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Location/assign)
over assigning to
[window.location](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/location)
which typescript does not like. This works in all browsers including
PaleMoon.
- Fix all typescript issues in `web_src/js/webcomponents`, no behaviour
changes.
- ~~Workaround bug in `@typescript-eslint/no-unnecessary-type-assertion`
rule.~~
- Omit vendored file from type checks.
- `tsc` error count is reduce by 53 with these changes.
Adds types to various low-level modules. All changes are type-only, no
runtime changes. `tsc` now reports 38 less errors.
One problem was that `@types/sortablejs` does not accept promise return
in its functions which triggered the linter, so I disabled the rules on
those line.
None of the frontend js/ts files was touched besides these two commands
(edit: no longer true, I touched one file in
61105d0618
because of a deprecation that was not showing before the rename).
`tsc` currently reports 778 errors, so I have disabled it in CI as
planned.
Everything appears to work fine.
