{{{
#!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="61544"
Build/Test Tools: Bump `esversion` from 10 to 11 in JSHint config.
This updates the core configuration to allow JS language features which
area already shipping in core via Gutenberg packages. Obsolete `/* jshint
esversion: 6 */` comments are also removed from JS files.
Developed in https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/10808
Follow-up to [59963].
Props westonruter, jonsurrell, mukesh27.
See #63077.
Fixes #64562.
