v8 deprecation warnings

[wagnerand]

npm warn deprecated [email protected]: This module is not supported, and leaks memory. Do not use it. Check out lru-cache if you want a good and tested way to coalesce async requests by a key value, which is much more comprehensive and powerful.
npm warn deprecated [email protected]: Rimraf versions prior to v4 are no longer supported
npm warn deprecated [email protected]: Rimraf versions prior to v4 are no longer supported
npm warn deprecated [email protected]: Glob versions prior to v9 are no longer supported
npm warn deprecated [email protected]: Glob versions prior to v9 are no longer supported

Some of these would need to be resolved in addons-linter (see below), but for web-ext, we should probably replace bunyan by something that is still maintained.

bunyan hasn't seen a release in 3 years and a commit in 2 years. It's probably better to replace it with another logger, than waiting for an update.

In that linked issue, the purpose of mv was mentioned. If the feature is not needed by addons-linter, a simpler fix could be to add overrides to our package.json to swap out the mv dependency: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v8/configuring-npm/package-json#overrides

• Bunyan has a dedicated issue: Remove bunyan #2456
• eslint just needs to be updated to v9, which as far as I know it's gonna take some effort, and it's also blocked: 6.28.0 deprecation warnings addons-linter#5311 (comment)

These two will fix all the issues mentioned here.

[willdurand]

Yeah. So for eslint v9, most plugins must be compatible and that wasn't the case last time I checked.
