We now use webpack instead of SystemJS, effectively bundling modules
into one file (plus commons chunks) for every entry point.  This results
in a much smaller extension size (almost half).  Furthermore we use
yarn/npm even for extension run-time dependencies.  This relieves us
from manually vendoring and building dependencies.  It's also easier to
understand for new developers familiar with node.

merge-stream

Merge (interleave) a bunch of streams.

Synopsis

var stream1 = new Stream();
var stream2 = new Stream();

var merged = mergeStream(stream1, stream2);

var stream3 = new Stream();
merged.add(stream3);
merged.isEmpty();
//=> false

Description

This is adapted from event-stream separated into a new module, using Streams3.

API

`mergeStream`

Type: function

Merges an arbitrary number of streams. Returns a merged stream.

`merged.add`

A method to dynamically add more sources to the stream. The argument supplied to add can be either a source or an array of sources.

`merged.isEmpty`

A method that tells you if the merged stream is empty.

When a stream is "empty" (aka. no sources were added), it could not be returned to a gulp task.

So, we could do something like this:

stream = require('merge-stream')();
// Something like a loop to add some streams to the merge stream
// stream.add(streamA);
// stream.add(streamB);
return stream.isEmpty() ? null : stream;
