Description

We'd like to use babel 6 to build handlebars in debian. Currently build fails with this error

Warning: [BABEL] lib/handlebars.js: Using removed Babel 5 option: base.loose - Specify the `loose` option for the relevant plugin you are using or use a preset that sets the option. Use --force to continue.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Update the Babel configuration in the project to be compatible with Babel 6. Replace the deprecated 'base.loose' option with the specific 'loose' option in the relevant plugins or use a preset that sets it.
