With these changes SystemJS is now only used, during development, on the worker-thread and in the unit/font-tests, since Firefox is currently missing support for worker modules; please see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687 Hence all the JavaScript files in the `web/` and `src/display/` folders are now loaded *natively* by the browser (during development) using standard `import` statements/calls, thanks to a nice `import-maps` polyfill. *Please note:* As soon as https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687 is fixed in Firefox, we should be able to remove all traces of SystemJS and thus finally be able to use every possible modern JavaScript feature.

Most of the testing of this patch will unfortunately need to be done locally, and manually, since the changes shouldn't affect the built files in any way... /botio test |

Depends upon, and includes, PR #11914
Fixes #10965 (given that it doesn't make much sense to spend time and effort on that now, since SystemJS is now used a lot less and that it'll hopefully be gone completely somewhat soon).
