Scarf Telemetry being injected by swagger-ui #7524

Description

I'm not a massive fan of telemetry nor do I think the swagger team have done enough to allow opt out. I read through their conversations last night and they seem to have a disdain for people wanting to opt out of it.

Pre-steps.

  1. Understand WHY more people aren't talking about this / calling swagger-ui out for telemetry. It's the only dep we use out of thousands.. I would have expected more projects to be complaining...

Steps.

  1. Drop swagger-ui
  2. Make a clear stand on telemetry software.
  3. Investigate our own telemetry (yes, we have some...) and make ours easily opt-out.

Alt Steps.

  1. Wait for swagger-ui to not use Scarf

Where does our own internal telemetry happen?

  1. UpdateCheck.ts phones home.
  2. Plugin registry.
