Convert project to esm

[edenhermelin]

Close #31 (perhaps also close #32 )

This PR updates the project to use ESM and allows to import the new version of the normalize-url library

Hey @IonicaBizau just checking in, if there's anything else to add to the PR so it'll be merged please let me know 🙏

@edenhermelin Sorry for the late reply on this — would this be backwards compatible with require?

Thank you very much!

Hi,
Any updates on this one?

The main issue we have is that the normalize-url version breaks our application in Safari due to this bug that was merged on version 7.0.1 of normalize-url.

Thanks

Hey @IonicaBizau , I think that might be OK but it depends on the configuration of the project that uses this library. Anyway, the PR allows to update the nested dependency (that fixes the usage for Safari), so I guess that it will be effective to add it as currently there are a lot of people blocked from using the library 😃

Thank you for this! I am trying to release the new version soon!

FYI this is a breaking change and warrants a major version bump as CommonJS packages will no longer be able to require() it.

ESM files are strict by default
