Bug 1686678 - Prepare Glean.js to publish for web extensions

[brizental]

For the Glean.js web extension package I could only think of the name @mozilla/glean-webext, but I don't like it.

Pls, help.

For reference, these are the logs of a publishing dry-run that I tested using the npm run publish:webext command:

I need to remember to set this environment variable before tagging for the first time. I copied this code from the nimbus-shared CI config, so I trust it works.

@badboy also has expertise here :)

This is also copied from the glean_parser publishing CI task.

This is a bit weird, I know. But it is necessary since we plan to publish different packages from this same package.json. Note that I set the correct name on the prepublish command.

[brizental]

Also, I will need to change the glean_parser template, because right now it just assumes the package will be called "glean". That was an oversight on my part. Apologies.

Mh, that's a good point. I don't really have any good input for this. Maybe check in the channel :)

Do we need to publish things in src/?

Eh, you are right. No we don't.
