Switch to use nodenext module resolution

[mjbvz]

This better enforces that imports end with a file extension and also use relative paths

It seems required to set option module to NodeNext. But if we set "module": "NodeNext" the tsc will generate export {} at the end of the file in preload.js which results in error syntax since electron does not support esm in sandboxed preload script.

Yes, thats a bug that I reported but was closed as "works as intended": https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/60074

Even if you don't use an import statement when the module is set to NodeNext in tsconfig.json it still generates export {} at the end of the file.

TS suggested add "moduleDetection": "legacy" which I think prevents export from being generated in non module files

This change also depend on merging #237989 to removed an old test file

While you're in here, can you drop the use of paths? It's only a couple of mistakenly left over JSDoc comments that still use that, as far as I can tell.

Would be great if this could move along 👍
