ASN1.js Feature/esmbuild

Create bundled es-module build/asn1.bundle.mjs for simple browser usage, and Deno support.
Add basic installation instructions
~Include build/* in repo for certain cdn-providers, e.g. deno.land/x or jsdeliver/gh~

I don't like the idea of keeping bundled (compiled) files in repo.

unpkg cdn-provider allows to use this module without minification

import * as asn1js from "https://unpkg.com/asn1js?module";

Unpkg works great for me, thanks again for the tip.

Having a "standardised" bundle in repo would serve a purpose anyways, enabling all cdn providers to serve the bundle.

If that's not interesting, maybe we can revert the gitignore change but still build the bundle? (and let npm be the source of choice for Deno, and simplify browser usage)

That would make this work:

import { x } from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/asn1js@2/build/asn1.bundle.mjs";

Edit: Force pushed a new version of this pull request, without repo-inclusion of build/.

I don't like the idea of keeping the bundle file with included external dependencies in the NPM registry. I guess it's better to compile a bundle file on application later with env requirements.

Upgraded fido2-lib @ https://github.com/webauthn-open-source/fido2-lib/pull/85 . Works fine!
