- **added** — Added support for modern JavaScript/TypeScript syntax including import with syntax

**Breaking changes**

-  Upgraded the underlying SWC libraries that FTA depends on. This results in different scores, since various changes were made to improve the accuracy of how operands and operators are counted. It is also expected that this adds support for many cases of modern JavaScript/TypeScript syntax. For example, the `import with` syntax is now supported.

##### Breaking changes

- Added the `include_comments` option with a default value of `false`, which means that comments are no longer included in scoring by default

- Changed `output_limit` to (a) only affect the `table` format output and (b) work as expected.
