Upgrade oxc 0.132.0 -> 0.133.0 (and oxc_resolver 11.19.1 -> 11.19.2) and expose the decorator `strictNullChecks` metadata option added upstream in oxc-project/oxc#22266. transform.decorator.strictNullChecks (default true) controls whether null and undefined are elided from union `design:type` metadata under emitDecoratorMetadata: `string | null` emits `Object` when strict (the default, matching tsc) and `String` when set to false (matching `tsc --strictNullChecks false` and babel-plugin-transform-typescript-metadata). It is threaded through rolldown_common DecoratorOptions (defaulting to oxc's `true` via unwrap_or(true)), the napi binding normalizer, the validator schema, the regenerated binding.d.cts, and the auto-generated --transform.decorator.strict-null-checks CLI flag. It is not inferred from tsconfig.json (oxc_resolver does not parse strictNullChecks). Also handles the upgrade's breaking changes and fallout: - oxc::transformer::DecoratorOptions gained a required strict_null_checks field (manual Default = true). - oxc_minify_napi::CodegenOptions gained legal_comments (set to None); exposed as minify codegen.legalComments in the validator. - Regenerated napi bindings (incl. LegalCommentsMode) and embedded runtime helpers (@oxc-project/runtime 0.133.0). - Refreshed snapshots for oxc's new #__PURE__ / #__NO_SIDE_EFFECTS__ annotation syntax and updated minifier/DCE output. - Added transform tests for both strictNullChecks modes and documented the option in transform.md.

…ct-null-checks # Conflicts: # crates/rolldown_common/src/inner_bundler_options/types/transform_option/decorator_options.rs
Use a `:::tip` callout instead of a bare blockquote and add a fenced code example showing the per-mode `design:type` result, matching the existing transform/tsconfig option docs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <[email protected]>

Summary
Builds on #9563, which upgraded oxc to
0.133.0and surfaced thestrictNullChecksdecorator-metadata option (from oxc-project/oxc#22266) in the TypeScript types, the validator, and the generated binding.However, #9563's Rust
From<DecoratorOptions> for oxc::transformer::DecoratorOptionshardcodesstrict_null_checks: true, and the napi options normalizer doesn't carry the field, sotransform.decorator.strictNullChecks: falseis currently silently ignored through rolldown's transform/bundle pipeline (the option exists in the type surface but does nothing).This PR wires it through so the option actually takes effect.
What changed
rolldown_common::DecoratorOptionsgains astrict_null_checks: Option<bool>field; itsFromimpl now usesoptions.strict_null_checks.unwrap_or(true)(mirroring oxc's own default) instead of the hardcodedtrue.normalize_binding_transform_optionsforwardsstrict_null_checksfrom the incoming napi options intoDecoratorOptions(previously dropped).transform.md) + tests.Behavior
When
emitDecoratorMetadatais enabled (legacy decorators):strictNullChecks: true(default)strictNullChecks: falsestring | nullObject(matchestscstrict)String(matchestsc --strictNullChecks false/babel-plugin-transform-typescript-metadata)number | undefinedObjectNumberDefaults to
true, so there is no behavior change for existing users; only an explicitstrictNullChecks: falseis newly honored.Follow-up: inferring from
tsconfig.jsonoxc-project/oxc-resolver#1166 (
feat(tsconfig): parse strict and strictNullChecks compiler options) is the enabling resolver-side change. It addsstrict/strictNullCheckstoCompilerOptions, inherits them throughextends, and exposeseffective_strict_null_checks()implementing tsc'sstrictNullChecks ?? strictprecedence.Once it lands and is released, a small downstream follow-up here can forward
compiler_options.effective_strict_null_checks()inmerge_transform_options_with_tsconfigintoDecoratorOptions.strict_null_checks(mappingNoneto the transformer default), plus add the field to the inlineBindingTsconfigCompilerOptionspath, makingstrictNullChecksauto-inferred from tsconfig like the other decorator options. This PR is intentionally scoped to the explicit option so it's useful immediately and independent of that release.Test plan
