robobun c59a6997cd feat(bundler): add statically-analyzable dead-code elimination via feature flags (#25462)
## Summary
- Adds `import { feature } from "bun:bundle"` for compile-time feature
flag checking
- `feature("FLAG_NAME")` calls are replaced with `true`/`false` at
bundle time
- Enables dead-code elimination through `--feature=FLAG_NAME` CLI
argument
- Works in `bun build`, `bun run`, and `bun test`
- Available in both CLI and `Bun.build()` JavaScript API

## Usage

```ts
import { feature } from "bun:bundle";

if (feature("SUPER_SECRET")) {
  console.log("Secret feature enabled!");
} else {
  console.log("Normal mode");
}
```

### CLI
```bash
# Enable feature during build
bun build --feature=SUPER_SECRET index.ts

# Enable at runtime
bun run --feature=SUPER_SECRET index.ts

# Enable in tests
bun test --feature=SUPER_SECRET
```

### JavaScript API
```ts
await Bun.build({
  entrypoints: ['./index.ts'],
  outdir: './out',
  features: ['SUPER_SECRET', 'ANOTHER_FLAG'],
});
```

## Implementation
- Added `bundler_feature_flags` (as `*const bun.StringSet`) to
`RuntimeFeatures` and `BundleOptions`
- Added `bundler_feature_flag_ref` to Parser struct to track the
`feature` import
- Handle `bun:bundle` import at parse time (similar to macros) - capture
ref, return empty statement
- Handle `feature()` calls in `e_call` visitor - replace with boolean
based on flags
- Wire feature flags through CLI arguments and `Bun.build()` API to
bundler options
- Added `features` option to `JSBundler.zig` for JavaScript API support
- Added TypeScript types in `bun.d.ts`
- Added documentation to `docs/bundler/index.mdx`

## Test plan
- [x] Basic feature flag enabled/disabled tests (both CLI and API
backends)
- [x] Multiple feature flags test
- [x] Dead code elimination verification tests
- [x] Error handling for invalid arguments
- [x] Runtime tests with `bun run --feature=FLAG`
- [x] Test runner tests with `bun test --feature=FLAG`
- [x] Aliased import tests (`import { feature as checkFeature }`)
- [x] Ternary operator DCE tests
- [x] Tests use `itBundled` with both `backend: "cli"` and `backend:
"api"`

TypeScript types for Bun

Logo

These are the type definitions for Bun's JavaScript runtime APIs.

Installation

Install the @types/bun npm package:

# yarn/npm/pnpm work too
# @types/bun is an ordinary npm package
bun add -D @types/bun

That's it! VS Code and TypeScript automatically load @types/* packages into your project, so the Bun global and all bun:* modules should be available immediately.

Contributing

The @types/bun package is a shim that loads bun-types. The bun-types package lives in the Bun repo under packages/bun-types.

To add a new file, add it under packages/bun-types. Then add a triple-slash directive pointing to it inside ./index.d.ts.
