Replace common/*, browser/*, and headless/* path-mapped imports with relative paths across src/, addons/, test/, and demo/. Remove paths from all tsconfig.json files and include addon typings directly. Addon sources import shared code via out-esbuild/ so unit tests resolve compiled modules with runtime const enums. Fix benchmark bare imports and normalize corrupted tsconfig formatting. Resolves #5896 Co-authored-by: Daniel Imms <Tyriar@users.noreply.github.com>

Handling Context Loss
The browser may drop WebGL contexts for various reasons like OOM or after the system has been suspended. There is an API exposed that fires the webglcontextlost event fired on the canvas so embedders can handle it however they wish. An easy, but suboptimal way, to handle this is by disposing of WebglAddon when the event fires:
const terminal = new Terminal();
const addon = new WebglAddon();
addon.onContextLoss(e => {
addon.dispose();
});
terminal.loadAddon(addon);
