bug: Static Initialization Blocks Not Executing with Higher ECMAScript Versions in StencilJS about stencil HOT 6 OPEN

It looks like this is a Rollup-related issue, since support for static initialization blocks was added in 2.59.0 but we're on 2.56.3

Hey @a7medm7med 👋

We will be upgrading our version of rollup later this year. Due to some cross-dependency limitations/breaking changes in rollup plugins that Stencil exposes, we're targeting this for the Stencil v5 release later this year.

@a7medm7med thanks for raising the issue. I can confirm that setting ES2022 as target fails while ES2021 compiles fine. The JavaScript feature in question here are static initialization blocks implemented in src/controllers/localize.ts.

I've ingested this into our backlog for the team to take a look at.

Consider upgrading the Rollup version to at least 2.68.0 for improved performance and compatibility.

Thanks for the update on the rollup upgrade and the Stencil v5 release. I appreciate your efforts in keeping us informed. Out of curiosity, do you know if StencilJS will be considering the adoption of Rollup version 3 in the upcoming releases as well? Looking forward to hearing more about the developments. Thanks again to you and the team for your hard work! 🚀👍

Yes, we're planning on moving to the latest version of rollup (v4.x as of this writing)
