c24201b5f3 FIX: Break dist javascript and onto newlines.
This doesn’t have much impact on resulting JS size, but it will
hopefully make merge conflicts much less frequent.

The CSS growth is a little higher (6.5% increase in size) but is not
material.

If this materially reduces the number of merge conflicts we have, by
letting the git merge tools resolve some dist file mergers, I think it
would be worth it.

Some example changes in file size:

bundle.js 290K -> 301K
vendor.js 1,325K -> 1,321K
bundle.css 628K -> 669K

e1b827f7c8 Optimise webpack build time (#6049)
* Rename bundles (prep for webpack optimisation)

This might or might not reduce the overall repo size,
because git can combine similar chunks in the newly generated files

* Optimise webpack build time

Consolidates bundles, since a separation of bundle-framework.js vs. bundle-legacy.js
vs. bundle-lib.js no longer makes sense - they're all loaded upfront anyway,
since we'll be introducing more react-powered logic alongside the "legacy" JavaScript.

By consolidating into fewer bundles, we give the optimisation scripts (UglifyJS)
more options to reduce the overall file size.

The main motivation for a vendor.js is to shorten rebuild times:
Most active development is happening in files required through bundle.js.
This commit drastically reduces the rebuild time for those changes (15s to 4s).

ee10dbb680 API Moved frontend assets into admin/ "module"
We've removed the ability to directly reference JS and CSS files
for form fields and other SilverStripe features in favour of a common bundle built by Webpack.

The logical next step is to make the framework module free of frontend dependencies,
which should simplify its operation, and avoid another time intensive "npm install" on a module.
