Mitchell Hentges 3ecc6dad6a Bug 1731145: Don't ignore vendored package `*.egg-info` directories r=ahal
The `*.egg-info` directories are needed for the packages to show up as
"distributions" to `pip` and other environment-checking logic.

We know that `*.egg-info` directories are cross-platform because they
exist in the globally-usable `tar.gz` releases of packages.

Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code:: shell

    pip install esprima

API
~~~

Esprima can be used to perform `lexical
analysis <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexical_analysis>`__
(tokenization) or `syntactic
analysis <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsing>`__ (parsing) of a
JavaScript program.

A simple example:

.. code:: javascript

    >>> import esprima
    >>> program = 'const answer = 42'

    >>> esprima.tokenize(program)
    [{
        type: "Keyword",
        value: "const"
    }, {
        type: "Identifier",
        value: "answer"
    }, {
        type: "Punctuator",
        value: "="
    }, {
        type: "Numeric",
        value: "42"
    }]

    >>> esprima.parseScript(program)
    {
        body: [
            {
                kind: "const",
                declarations: [
                    {
                        init: {
                            raw: "42",
                            type: "Literal",
                            value: 42
                        },
                        type: "VariableDeclarator",
                        id: {
                            type: "Identifier",
                            name: "answer"
                        }
                    }
                ],
                type: "VariableDeclaration"
            }
        ],
        type: "Program",
        sourceType: "script"
    }
