build(deps-dev): bump webpack from 5.42.0 to 5.51.0

[dependabot]

Bumps webpack from 5.42.0 to 5.51.0.

Release notes

Sourced from webpack's releases.

v5.51.0

Bugfixes

• correctly keep chunk loading state when the chunk loading logic is HMR updated
  • This fixes some edge cases that e. g. occur when using lazy compilation for entrypoints. It is now able to HMR update that instead of needing a manual reload. Also see fixes in webpack-dev-server@4.
• track and resolve symlinks for filesystem snapshotting
  • This fixes some cases of circular yarn linking of dependencies.
  • It also fixes some problems when using package managers that use symlinks to deduplicate (e. g. cnpm or pnpm)
• pass the resulting module in the callbacks of Compilation.addModuleChain and Compilation.addModuleTree

v5.50.0

Features

• hashbangs (#! ...) are now handled by webpack
  • https://github.com/tc39/proposal-hashbang

Performance

• disable cache compression by default as it tend to make performance worse
  • I could still be enabled again for specific scenarios
• reduce the number of allocations during cache serialization
  • This improves performance and memory usage

v5.49.0

Features

• add experiments.buildHttp to build http(s):// imports instead of keeping them external
  • keeps a webpack.lock file with integrity and webpack.lock.data with cached content that should be committed
  • Automatically upgrades lockfile during development when remote resources change (might be disabled with experiments.buildHttp.upgrade: false)
  • Lockfile is frozen during production builds and usually no network requests are made (exception: Cache-Control: no-cache).
  • The webpack.lock.data persisting can be disabled with experiments.buildHttp.cacheLocation: false. That will will introduce a availability risk. (webpack cache will be used to cache network responses)

Bugfixes

• fix HMR infinite loop (again)
• fix rare non-determinism with splitChunks.maxSize introduces in the last release
• optional modules no longer cause the module to fail when bail is set
• fix typo in records format: chunkHashs -> chunkHashes

Performance

• limit the number of parallel generated chunks for memory reasons

v5.48.0

Features
