[WIP] Version 3 / Vue3 Support

[lzurbriggen]

I'm working on Vue3 support.

This is a work in progress and not ready to be merged yet. I'm making relatively drastic changes and I'd appreciate some feedback/discussion. If we disagree on the direction this is taking I could split this into a new package.

changes on the dev side

• implementation in typescript
• npm run dev now runs a Vue3 project using vite (no more webpack)
• replaced karma/chai/sinon with jest tests
• no more localVue; the plugin instance is passed around as a function argument

changes on user side

• in composition api contexts the plugin can be injected using the new useGettext() function, e.g. useGettext().current = 'en_US'
• no more configuration via Vue.config. Vue3 has app.config but I'm not sure if it's best practice to populate that object. For now the config can be accessed via $language.options
• removed autoAddKeyAttributes, likely unnecessary
• mixins can now be reactive, e.g:

mixins: {
    currentWithoutRegion: (lang) => computed(() => lang.current.toLowerCase().split("_")[0]),
}

todo

• figure out how to handle configuration
• update @vue/test-utils when it has released a new version including my changes to the plugin api (should fix most tests)
• types for global properties
• check if the built packages work in esm/commonjs contexts
• host new live demo
• update readmes/documentation
• clean up dependencies
• make sure extraction still works properly (please also take a look at my pull requests in easygettext)
• code cleanup
• more explicit typing

Hi @lzurbriggen,

Sorry for the delay…

Thank you for your PR, but you probably should split this into a new package.

I don't have time anymore to contribute to vue-gettext. In fact I haven't worked with Vue.js in over three years. I'm barely merging PR and keeping deps up to date.

@kemar No problem, I'll probably do that soon. Thanks for the response!
