[Pkg-javascript-devel] De-embedding a component

The https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript/GroupSourcesTutorial page is great
but does not cover the reverse step, when you want to de-embed a component.

This is useful if upstream drops that dependency or if it gets separately
packaged in Debian.

I have done that manually for node-yarnpkg/strict-uri-encode here:
https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-yarnpkg/commit/9a7ff6867e

Please someone review my approach before I upload, and maybe document it in
the wiki page above.
One thing I am not sure about is that strict-uri-encode tarball is still
present in pristine-tar branch ...
