fix: cleanup build

[dword-design]

I got this error the last time I used the lib in a project:

Cannot find module 'regenerator-runtime/runtime' Require stack: - <project>/node_modules/fetch-paginate/dist/main.js

So I decided to clean up the build and to migrate to ESM.

Hi @dword-design what was the reason to remove these types?

[dword-design]

Reason was that the typing in the current TypeScript reason leads to errors. response.json() returns just any (but which is not optimal imho), and response.text() returns a string. The problem is that response.text() contradicts with $Body. If that special handling wouldn't be there, Promise<$Body> would work. Setting Promise<$Body | string> leads to TypeScript errors when building.

Setting it to Promise<any> is not good though, so better have the types clean.

Hey @dword-design thanks for the contribution! We're able to remove Webpack because we no longer need to transpile now that we're on ESM?

[dword-design]

Yeah. I'd say Node.js runs right away and for the browser it should be possible to either use a bundler for the end-user project or import ESM. I tried it for defaults which only has an ESM export (and 29M downloads) and it works:

<!-- index.html -->

<script type="module">
import defaults from "https://esm.sh/defaults";

console.log(defaults({ a: 2 }, { a: 1, b: 2 }));
</script>

Hi @dword-design what's the reason this type isn't needed anymore?

[dword-design]

Why would we need it? It's imported in src/index.ts.
