Syntax error in ESM script doesn’t link to specific line

[albertvanveen]

Description

With classic scripts, syntax errors would provide a clickable link that navigates directly to the specific line in the Script Editor. However, with ESM scripts, syntax errors do not provide any link, so you cannot jump to the relevant line to fix the issue.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a project using ESM scripts like test.mjs.
2. Introduce a syntax error, for example: this.app( inside initialize().
3. Save the script and launch the project.
4. Check the error.
5. Observe that it does not provide a link.

Result

Classic script:

ESM script:

This is happening because the error is not a runtime error. It's a parse time error when the module is loaded. To fix this, I believe we need to both improve the error handling in the Engine's ScriptHandler for ESM scripts and then update the Launch page code to handle this updated Engine errors.
