[Pkg-javascript-devel] review node-braces 2.3.1 with pkg-component setup

While updating node-braces from 2.0.2 to 2.3.1, I found that the node-split-string version that we have in debian (6.0.0-1) breaks it (it only works with 3.0.2).
To see how it breaks it (779/944 tests fail), you can have a look at a failed CI run:
https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-braces/-/jobs/103300

Since upstream is not willing to upgrade braces to use split-string 6.0.0 (https://github.com/micromatch/braces/issues/19) nor am I, I opted to embed split-string 3.0.2 (and assign-symbols that is for some mysterious reason also required), using the pkg-components procedure:
https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript/Nodejs/Npm2Deb/Embedding

Since this is the 1st time I apply this procedure, I would appreciate if someone could review it:
https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-braces

Thanks,

Paolo
