Note

Low Risk
Dev-only dependency patch with no repo code changes; residual risk is limited to build/bundle behavior differences from webpack’s patch fixes.

Overview
Bumps the webpack dev dependency from 5.108.3 to 5.108.4 in package.json and package-lock.json. No application or extension source changes.

Upstream 5.108.4 is a patch release focused on HTML/CSS parser performance, HTML <base href> URL resolution, lazy-barrel export cache fixes, and related bundler behavior tweaks that may affect builds if you rely on webpack directly (e.g. with webpack-cli).
