fix: replace decode-entity.browser.js for Web Workers

[yoshi389111]

Hello.

I've found what appears to be a small bug, so I'd like to report it.

Problem

In textlint/editor, if a named entity reference (e.g. >) is entered, the error "document is not defined" occurs.

Numeric entity references, however, work fine.

Source:

This error seems to originate from parse-entities.
The latest version of parse-entities is 4.0.2, but textlint/editor currently uses 2.0.0, which appears to switch between the browser and non-browser versions.

textlint/editor imports the browser version of parse-entities, which depends on document. However, since textlint/editor runs the relevant code inside a Web Worker, document is not available, leading to the error.

Proposed Solution

Possible solutions could include:

• Use the non-browser version of parse-entities
• Upgrading to a newer version of parse-entities
• Switching to a different library

For this pull request, I modified src/compiler.ts in @textlint/script-compiler to use the non-browser version, and added a Webpack plugin configuration.

With this change, we confirmed that the error no longer occurs when entering named entity references.
That said, we haven’t yet conducted extensive testing.
