esm: drop support for import assertions
Description for changelog: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/52104#issuecomment-2066201571
This patch removes support for the assert
keyword for import attributes. It was an old variant of the proposal that was only shipped in V8 and no other
engine, and that has then been replaced by the with
keyword.
Chrome is planning to remove support for assert
in version 126, which will be released in June.
Node.js already supports the with
keyword for
import attributes, and this patch does not change that.
