Npm support for Azure Maps extensions

Will the extensions to Azure Maps created by the Microsoft team ever be included in the azure-maps-control npm package? Some examples of extensions are the fullscreen map control, the animation module and the image exporter.

Due to our tech stack, it is rather awkward to integrate plain js files that extend a package, rather than use an npm package.

Please see this issue for more information: https://github.com/Azure-Samples/azure-maps-image-exporter/issues/2

    Many of them have been included or are in the process of being included. The Fullscreen control was added within the last week or two. The scale bar control has also made it in. Note that these are now built into the main azure maps NPM package and there is no need for additional js files or npm packages.

    The animation module does have its own NPM package here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@azure-maps/animations

    The image exporter does not have an NPM package and I'm not sure it ever will as it's not something that has been highly requested (the project has a single star, and I think that might be from me). Note, all those modules were created as samples, by me :), to show how to create modules and originally to solve a tech challenge someone on the forums had. I also purposely made these open-source so others could reuse/extend them. Note that I'm not on the Azure Maps team.
