deps: Bump esbuild from 0.27.7 to 0.28.0 in /vscode-mdl

[dependabot]

Bumps esbuild from 0.27.7 to 0.28.0.

Release notes

Sourced from esbuild's releases.

v0.28.0

• Add support for with { type: 'text' } imports (#4435)

  The import text proposal has reached stage 3 in the TC39 process, which means that it's recommended for implementation. It has also already been implemented by Deno and Bun. So with this release, esbuild also adds support for it. This behaves exactly the same as esbuild's existing text loader. Here's an example:

  import string from './example.txt' with { type: 'text' }
  console.log(string)

• Add integrity checks to fallback download path (#4343)

  Installing esbuild via npm is somewhat complicated with several different edge cases (see esbuild's documentation for details). If the regular installation of esbuild's platform-specific package fails, esbuild's install script attempts to download the platform-specific package itself (first with the npm command, and then with a HTTP request to registry.npmjs.org as a last resort).

  This last resort path previously didn't have any integrity checks. With this release, esbuild will now verify that the hash of the downloaded binary matches the expected hash for the current release. This means the hashes for all of esbuild's platform-specific binary packages will now be embedded in the top-level esbuild package. Hopefully this should work without any problems. But just in case, this change is being done as a breaking change release.

• Update the Go compiler from 1.25.7 to 1.26.1

  This upgrade should not affect anything. However, there have been some significant internal changes to the Go compiler, so esbuild could potentially behave differently in certain edge cases:

  • It now uses the new garbage collector that comes with Go 1.26.
  • The Go compiler is now more aggressive with allocating memory on the stack.
  • The executable format that the Go linker uses has undergone several changes.
  • The WebAssembly build now unconditionally makes use of the sign extension and non-trapping floating-point to integer conversion instructions.

  You can read the Go 1.26 release notes for more information.

AI Code Review

What Looks Good

• The PR performs a routine dependency update in the VS Code extension (vscode-mdl/package.json), bumping esbuild from ^0.27.3 to ^0.28.0.
• The update incorporates esbuild's v0.28.0 improvements, including support for the import text proposal (with { type: 'text' } imports) and enhanced security via integrity checks in the fallback download path.
• The change is isolated to the VS Code extension's build tooling and does not affect MDL syntax, Go code, core functionality, or the full-stack pipeline (grammar, AST, visitor, executor, etc.).
• The project uses bun for the VS Code extension (per CLAUDE.md), and esbuild's breaking changes in v0.28.0 relate to npm installation paths, which are unlikely to impact the extension's bun-based build process.

Recommendation

Approve. The dependency bump is appropriate, well-scoped, and poses no risks to the project's MDL functionality or code quality. No changes to the review checklist items are required as this is purely a dependency update in the VS Code extension.

AI Code Review

What Looks Good

• The PR updates a single dependency (esbuild) in the VS Code extension's devDependencies, which is a routine maintenance task.
• The esbuild 0.28.0 release includes beneficial improvements: support for the import text proposal (stage 3), integrity checks for fallback downloads (enhancing security/reliability), and a Go compiler update.
• The change is minimal, focused, and follows standard dependency update practices.
• No risks are apparent given that the VS Code extension uses bun (not npm/node) for installation, mitigating concerns about the npm-specific breaking change mentioned in the release notes.

Recommendation

Approve the PR. This dependency update is safe and brings worthwhile improvements without introducing conflicts or violations of the project's guidelines. No changes are required.
