feat(minify): close more oxc and swc gaps: quoted keys, unread returns, NaN keys - #22914
Closes six sources of oxcSmaller.js and swcSmaller.js, all in the improve phase:
a["b"] and a.b (or "b": x and b: x) compare alike, so the branches spelling them apart merge. Not where the run keeps quotes: mangle.properties.keep_quoted: "strict" or format.keep_quoted_props. Plain keep_quoted already reserves every quoted name.
A function called in place whose value nothing reads drops its pure return values, before its body is tightened, so the call then unwraps. Not for an async function (a thenable's then would run), a named one, one reading arguments, or a value reading a let/const that may be in its dead zone. Behind side_effects.
Computed NaN and null keys are written as names (oxc keeps [null]).
new is dropped before RegExp of a BigInt.

Did you add tests for your changes?
Yes. IMPROVED_CASES in test/unitCases/javascript/printer.unittest.js for each gap, plus tests for what must stay (strict quotes, different keys, async, named, a dead-zone read, side_effects: false). The changed lines are fully covered, and the minify corpora match main apart from the retired entries.
Does this PR introduce a breaking change?
No
If relevant, what needs to be documented once your changes are merged or what have you already documented?

Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Improved JavaScript minification for quoted and unquoted property names, computed NaN and null keys, and RegExp patterns containing BigInts.
Corrected handling of return values in immediately invoked functions, preserving values when they may be observable and removing eligible unused values when safe.
Improved output consistency across different minification settings, including cases involving side effects, asynchronous functions, and finally blocks.
`new RegExp(10n)` builds what `RegExp(10n)` does: a BigInt pattern, negated or not, is no regular expression to hand back, so the call is written as for a number. Retires `normalize.rs:221`.
`{[NaN]: 1, [null]: 2}` as `{NaN: 1, null: 2}`, in objects, patterns and classes, where `computed_props` is on; no property mangler renames either name. oxc keeps `[null]`. Retires `convert_computed_props_to_regular_ones`.
Branches spelling a key with and without quotes merge where the run keeps no quote: not under `mangle.properties.keep_quoted: "strict"` or `format.keep_quoted_props`, since plain `keep_quoted` reserves each quoted name everywhere. Retires `minimize_statements.rs:188` and `issue_1674_false_equivalency_of_props`.
Where nothing reads the call, a pure `return` value goes before the body is tightened, so the call unwraps: not of an `async`, named or `arguments`-reading function, nor a value that may read a `let` in its dead zone. Behind `side_effects`. Retires swc `12301`.

Read Changed, test untouched first: the test is byte-identical on both sides, so webpack generated the difference. Changed, test edited moved partly because the test did — Test edit is how many bytes the test gained, and a bundle that grew by less is not a regression. New and Deleted are whole files, not deltas — a new asset was created, not grown, so it reads gray (⚪ added) — and adding tests cannot bury a real change. Gzip decides, because that is what users download; raw is the tiebreak, and brotli and zstd are per asset below.
No asset that both runs emit changed size — everything below is new or deleted.

JavaScript minification now handles additional property-key equivalences, computed NaN and null keys, unused values returned by eligible IIFEs, and BigInt patterns in RegExp construction checks. Regression tests and comparison-helper entries were updated.
The minifier tracks when quoted keys must remain distinct. When they do not, eligible quoted and unquoted keys compare by name. With computed_props enabled, computed NaN and null keys can become uncomputed names. Tests cover key handling and the four minimizer configurations. The OXC comparison list removes entries.
Eligible synchronous anonymous function IIFEs can drop return arguments when the call result is unused and the values have no side effects or disallowed binding reads. Tests cover cases where returned values must remain, including async calls and temporal-dead-zone access. OXC and SWC comparison lists remove entries.
BigInt RegExp construction lib/javascript/syntax-printer.js, test/unitCases/javascript/printer.unittest.js, test/configCases/optimization/minify-oxc-syntax-gaps/*
RegExp construction equivalence now accepts BigInt literals and unary-prefixed BigInt patterns. Printer and config tests cover positive and negative BigInt patterns.

A config case runs each rewrite through a real production build, with and without mangling, keeping quoted keys and with `side_effects` off, checking what each bundle prints and runs. The minimizer runs in the process so the coverage counts.
Snapshot the printed quotedKeys function for each configuration.
The merged check matches only the o["read"] and o.read property-access pattern. It does not inspect object-literal keys. quotedKeys returns { kept: value } and { "kept": value }, and both keys are the same string at runtime. The runtime assertions therefore pass even if the quote-preserving configuration (index 2, keep_quoted_props: true) prints the quotes away from either key. Snapshot the printed quotedKeys function for each configuration so that quote changes fail the case. Keep the existing runtime assertions.
