Update webpack and Vite istallation instructions for htmx 2.0

[restless]

Description

The webpack installation instructions are no longer valid for htmx 2.0. There are also no installation instructions for Vite.
This is affecting multiple people, judging from the issue tracker.

Corresponding issue:

• [2.0] Webpack installation, global HTMX properties undefined #2628
• 2.0: TypeError: import_htmx.default.config is undefined when defining config programmatically #2657
• htmx.logAll is not a function #2659

Testing

It's a documentation update and the only way to test it is to follow the new guidelines. These new guidelines are what works for me and other people (see issues listed above).

I think this should include

import inject from '@rollup/plugin-inject'

Also see #1690

Thanks @Darkproduct I've rewritten the docs to include your suggestions. To summarize there are the following options:

1. simply import htmx - it'll work then but won't allow you to use plugins or htmx.methods due to lack of the htmx global variable
2. import htmx and manually assign it to the window.htmx global variable
3. in case of webpack inject htmx via plugin
4. in case of Vite inject htmx via plugin

I am changing the main in package.json to be the esm file:

htmx/package.json

Line 23 in 52b3570

"main": "dist/htmx.esm.js",

Does this change these instructions at all? (Sorry I know nothing about Webpack or Vite)

[restless]

@1cg great to hear. Yes, the change allows us to simply inject/provide htmx.org instead of the dist/htmx.esm.js version. Let me push the updated docs version that reflects that change.

Is this possible in esbuild?

I had to use a work around like so: https://discord.com/channels/725789699527933952/1252928586206154753/1252933134396428348

@jackielii
I don't use esbuild directly, however define (https://esbuild.github.io/api/#define) looks promising. Have you tried it?

This is going to be related too: #2629 (comment)

If I may offer a suggestion:

The use of "probably" is unclear to beginners; You give a very concrete example right after (the use of htmx plugins), but is this the only scenario?

[plooney81]

Wouldn't this be: 'htmx.org/dist/htmx.esm'?

[restless]

@plooney81 As per @1cg comment here: #2668 (comment) htmx.org uses htmx.esm.js by default now.
Please see: https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/blob/master/package.json#L23C3-L23C30

In other words htmx.org should work (and works for me) well.

LGTM. This mimics my setup.
