Description

Since the commands like :RescriptBuild were removed, it would be very useful if this included support for Vim's built-in makeprg and errorformat features. I assume makeprg can just be npx rescript $*, but I'm not skilled enough at using errorformat to know what it needs to be.

Research direction

Start by examining the plugin's existing handling of the removed :RescriptBuild command and how Vim filetype settings are organized. Check how Vim's makeprg and errorformat should represent npx rescript output, then verify that :make can run the command and populate the quickfix list correctly.
