It might contain JS stuff, but you only need to compile and link the
C/C++ files in the src subdirectory.  You don't need to even look at
the rest.

Yes.

No, we won't bundle grammar libraries with Emacs.  It is not in the
scope of the Emacs project to provide external libraries; that's for
distros to arrange and for the individual users to install by
themselves.

There are limits to what Emacs as a project can do about using
external libraries and tools.
