34322	ManifestStaticFilesStorage crashes	Adam Johnson	nobody	"#32319 added module support to `ManifestStaticFilesStorage`. It can crash with imports in comments, which bundlers like Webpack can leave in.

Example:

{{{
//** @type {import(""./htmx"").HtmxApi} */
}}}

Leads to:

{{{
whitenoise.storage.MissingFileError: The file 'example/dist/htmx' could not be found with <whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage object at 0x16ff630a0>.

The JS file 'example/dist/app.js' references a file which could not be found:
  example/dist/htmx

Please check the URL references in this JS file, particularly any
relative paths which might be pointing to the wrong location.
}}}

The regex should be adjusted to only select imports that are alone on a line, with whitespace."	Bug	new	contrib.staticfiles	4.2	Normal				Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
