importmap miss dependency etc. for zxing, html5-qrcode and others.

This could be construed as jspm(the default --from) issue. But most of bin/importmap pin @zxing/browser will miss all the relative dependency that jspm use.

This is example of https://ga.jspm.io/npm:@zxing/[email protected]/esm/index.js which try to load relative path.

This makes importmap essentially unusable for vast variety of packages. May be it's time to change the default --from to something that works more reliably.

Just my 2 cents.

Similar to #264 #283. Related to #235

Just for those who stumble upon this in the future. Here is a workaround-ish.

pin "@zxing/browser", to: "https://ga.jspm.io/npm:@zxing/[email protected]/esm/index.js"
pin "@zxing/library", to: "https://ga.jspm.io/npm:@zxing/[email protected]/esm/index.js"
pin "ts-custom-error", to: "https://ga.jspm.io/npm:[email protected]/dist/custom-error.mjs"

How did I figure this out ... go to the generator, put in package name, copy the URL in import map + everything in scope and flatten it here. It's not locally loaded but at least it works since all the relative path it uses will be correctly resolved to jspm. This manual workaround should work for any package.
