Vitest Pros:
* Automated failing test comments on github PRs
* A nice local UI with incremental testing when changing files (`yarn
test:ui`)
* Also nicely supported in all major IDEs, click to run test works (so
we won't miss what we had with jest).
* Works well with ESM
Vitest Cons:
* The ESBuild transformer vitest uses takes a little longer to transform
than our current SWC/jest setup, however, it is possible to setup SWC as
the transformer for vitest as well (though it only does one transform,
so we're paying ~7-10 seconds instead of ~ 2-3 seconds in transform
phase).
* Exposes how slow our tests are (tongue in cheek here)
We're migrating to ESM, which will allow us to import the latest
versions of our dependencies.

As part of preparation for ESM and node/TSC updates, this PR will make
Unleash build with strictNullChecks set to true, since that's what's in
our tsconfig file. Hence, this PR also removes the `--strictNullChecks
false` flag in our compile tasks in package.json.
TL;DR - Clean up your code rather than turning off compiler security
features :)
## Why
Currently AWS API Gateway doesn't have compression enabled by default,
this PR will make it easier to for example deploy Unleash over to AWS
Lambda without further configuration in API Gateway, frameworks like
Serverless requires a bit more work to set up compression and some times
one might not need compression at all.
## How
Create a new config flag called `disableCompression` which will not
include `compression` middleware in express' instance when set as true.
