Last time we broke the loop by manually converting ES module to Commonjs with a patch. We could go straight to 1.17 if we follow this approach as it does not involve any build.

Alternative approach is to use type: module in package.json and the node --experimental-modules  to build rollup 1.17 with itself or just patch bin/rollup to add --experimental-modules  in shebang line.
