Dialog Native

Provides a new "dialogNative" JavaScript library as replacement for the original jQuery UI based dialog.js in Drupal core.
The dialogNative library uses the native HTML5 <dialog> element and thereby removes the jQuery UI Dialog dependencies 🎉

The module implements a dialogAdapter library, which should bridge all existing Drupal.dialog() calls to use the new dialogNative library until all use's of Drupal.dialog() are replaced by Drupal.dalogNative() in Drupal Core and Contrib modules.

In the future, large parts will hopefully be make it into Drupal Core: #2158943: Add a native dialog element to deprecate the jQuery UI dialog.

This module is heavy WIP and not ready for production! Please help us to push things forward and get rid of jQuery UI Dialog in Core! 💪

Plan / further steps

1. Review and polish the module implementations
2. Move dialogNative library into Drupal Core (#2158943: Add a native dialog element to deprecate the jQuery UI dialog)
3. Eventually move dialogAdapter library into Drupal Core to replace old core/drupal.dialog library (Drupal.dialog())
4. Deprecate core/drupal.dialog
5. Replace core/drupal.dialog implementations with core/drupal.dialogNative
6. Remove core/drupal.dialog with its jQuery UI dependencies

Please help us making progress! 🚀

Why?

1. Get rid of jQuery UI
2. Instead, use the native <dialog> Element
3. Drupal Dialog / Modal API and Drupal AJAX Dialog Boxes are still super cool features!
