esm: drop support for import assertions

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/nicolo-ribaudo/drop-assert into main

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 It was an old variant of the proposal that was only shipped in V8 and no other engine, and that has then been replaced by the with keyword.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.

Fixes #51622 (closed)
