In the resulting js object, the value for either
null
orundefined
is alwaysundefined
(null
is allowed in the json file, sinceundefined
is not; however this avoids dealing withnull
within the compiler), and we no longer issue any errors on seeing either value while validating a config. Except"extends"
, since that's not really a compiler option and can't meaningfully be "overwritten".Also fixes path handling in extended configs to be relative to the including file, as was in the original feature and implementation. This must have silently regressed at some point, as there were configs which should have tested this still present; but no tests using them. This is a bugfix, but may constitute a breaking change from the prior release, depending on how long the bug has been present. But hey, nobody complained when it changed the first time, so nobody's likely to complain when it changes back, right?
Fixes #14184
