Fixes#27264. Fixes https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/28161.
Currently the new lockfile version is gated behind an unstable flag
(`--unstable-lockfile-v5`) until the next minor release, where it will
become the default.
The main motivation here is that it improves startup performance when
using the global cache or `--node-modules-dir=auto`.
In a create-next-app project, running an empty file:
```
❯ hyperfine --warmup 25 -N --setup "rm -f deno.lock" "deno run --node-modules-dir=auto -A empty.js" "deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=auto -A empty.js" "deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=auto --unstable-lockfile-v5 empty.js" "deno run --node-modules-dir=manual -A empty.js" "deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=manual -A empty.js"
Benchmark 1: deno run --node-modules-dir=auto -A empty.js
Time (mean ± σ): 247.6 ms ± 1.7 ms [User: 228.7 ms, System: 19.0 ms]
Range (min … max): 245.5 ms … 251.5 ms 12 runs
Benchmark 2: deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=auto -A empty.js
Time (mean ± σ): 169.8 ms ± 1.0 ms [User: 152.9 ms, System: 17.9 ms]
Range (min … max): 168.9 ms … 172.5 ms 17 runs
Benchmark 3: deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=auto --unstable-lockfile-v5 empty.js
Time (mean ± σ): 16.2 ms ± 0.7 ms [User: 12.3 ms, System: 5.7 ms]
Range (min … max): 15.2 ms … 19.2 ms 185 runs
Benchmark 4: deno run --node-modules-dir=manual -A empty.js
Time (mean ± σ): 16.2 ms ± 0.8 ms [User: 11.6 ms, System: 5.5 ms]
Range (min … max): 14.9 ms … 19.7 ms 187 runs
Benchmark 5: deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=manual -A empty.js
Time (mean ± σ): 16.0 ms ± 0.9 ms [User: 12.0 ms, System: 5.5 ms]
Range (min … max): 14.8 ms … 22.3 ms 190 runs
Warning: Statistical outliers were detected. Consider re-running this benchmark on a quiet system without any interferences from other programs. It might help to use the '--warmup' or '--prepare' options.
Summary
deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=manual -A empty.js ran
1.01 ± 0.08 times faster than deno run --node-modules-dir=manual -A empty.js
1.01 ± 0.07 times faster than deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=auto --unstable-lockfile-v5 empty.js
10.64 ± 0.60 times faster than deno-this-pr run --node-modules-dir=auto -A empty.js
15.51 ± 0.88 times faster than deno run --node-modules-dir=auto -A empty.js
```
When using the new lockfile version, this leads to a 15.5x faster
startup time compared to the current deno version.
Install times benefit as well, though to a lesser degree.
`deno install` on a create-next-app project, with everything cached
(just setting up node_modules from scratch):
```
❯ hyperfine --warmup 5 -N --prepare "rm -rf node_modules" --setup "rm -rf deno.lock" "deno i" "deno-this-pr i" "deno-this-pr i --unstable-lockfile-v5"
Benchmark 1: deno i
Time (mean ± σ): 464.4 ms ± 8.8 ms [User: 227.7 ms, System: 217.3 ms]
Range (min … max): 452.6 ms … 478.3 ms 10 runs
Benchmark 2: deno-this-pr i
Time (mean ± σ): 368.8 ms ± 22.0 ms [User: 150.8 ms, System: 198.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 344.8 ms … 397.6 ms 10 runs
Benchmark 3: deno-this-pr i --unstable-lockfile-v5
Time (mean ± σ): 211.9 ms ± 17.1 ms [User: 7.1 ms, System: 177.2 ms]
Range (min … max): 191.3 ms … 233.4 ms 10 runs
Summary
deno-this-pr i --unstable-lockfile-v5 ran
1.74 ± 0.17 times faster than deno-this-pr i
2.19 ± 0.18 times faster than deno i
```
With lockfile v5, a 2.19x faster install time compared to the current
deno.
