Publish the source files alongside the already published source maps on npm

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When reading Cloud SDK code in the installed module folder or when stepping through it while debugging, the code is not as readable as it could be, because only the compiled JavaScript files are available, not the original TypeScript files.

Cloud SDK packages published on npm only contain the dist folder, which in turn contains .js (results of TS compilation), .d.ts (type definition files) and .d.ts.map (source maps). They do not contain the original source code, though they are referenced in the source maps, e.g.:
@sap-cloud-sdk/connectivity/dist/scp-cf/destination/destination-from-service.d.ts.map

{"version":3,"file":"destination-from-service.d.ts","sourceRoot":"","sources":["../../../src/scp-cf/destination/destination-from-service.ts"],"names":[],"mappings":"AAoBA,OAAO,EAAE,WAAW,EAAE,MAAM,6BAA6B,CAAC;AAM1D,OAAO,EACL,uBAAuB,EAExB,MAAM,8BAA8B,CAAC;AAmFtC;;;;;;;GAOG;AACH,wBAAsB,oCAAoC,CACxD,OAAO,EAAE,uBAAuB,GAC/B,OAAO,CAAC,WAAW,GAAG,IAAI,CAAC,CAK7B"}

I believe the only thing missing here is the src folder. If I copy the src from Github into my local installation everything works as expected.

Describe the solution you'd like
Publish the src folder for all packages (.spec.ts files are unnecessary though).

Alternatively, use inlineSources instead of sourceMap in https://github.com/SAP/cloud-sdk-js/blob/main/tsconfig.json.

Impact / Priority
Low, just a quality of life improvement.

Affected development phase: all

Impact: Inconvenience

Timeline: Not time sensitive

Hi @johenning, thanks for the suggestion, we'll see what we can do to improve this.

Best,
Florian

@johenning there has been some movement to the ticket. Just to update we wanted to provide the sourcemaps via a URL so that they are only downloaded if needed. This was not supported by VSC code yet but a PR is on the way:

microsoft/vscode-js-debug#1427

Once this is merged we will adjust also our code to the URL properly.

Due to the current priority, we won't work on it.
