Mar 3rd, 2022 (v20220301)

• Remove GETPROP/GETELEM from NodeUtil.isSimpleOperator as getters/setters can have side-effects.
• InlineObjectLiterals now identifies the right scope for statements with CASE nodes without user authored blocks.
• Rename Closure Compiler debugger web UI checkbox names "PRESERVE_FULL_JSDOC_DESCRIPTIONS" and "PRESERVE_TYPE_ANNOTATIONS" to "PARSE_FULL_JSDOC_DESCRIPTIONS" and "PARSE_TYPE_ANNOTATIONS".
• Fix optional chaining converting any following get property optional when removing brackets.
• Add support for a new jsdoc annotation called @tstype. This can be used by .d.ts generation tools to specialize function type signatures. Currently this is uninterpreted by the compiler.
• Add externs for maps api v3.48
• Break down destructured node to simple var node in @typeSummary/.i.js files.
• Ban setting inline event handlers with setAttribute.
• Treat the first, not last, property definition's JSDoc as canonical for conformance and access controls checks.
• Update BANNED_PROPERTY conformance check to cover object literals.
• Added --isolate_polyfills flag to the open source command line runner.
• Deleted deprecated method CompilerOptions.setBadRewriteProvidesInChecksOnlyThatWeWantToGetRidOf. This will only affect users of the Java API running with options.setChecksOnly(true)
• Support BROWSER_FEATURESET_YEAR 2022.
