fiftyfive-wicket-js supports automatically resolving JS dependencies using Sprockets-like `//= require` statements. However this behavior will never exactly match that of the real Sprockets library. This can lead to confusion if developers are sharing JS files between Wicket and non-Wicket projects, as the `//= require` statements might have unintended side effects.

This is still a powerful, useful feature, but because of the potential confusion we should let developers opt-out. Make it very easy to turn this feature completely off. Also give developers a way to override the default behavior so they can tweak it to their liking.
