…eful info: the inputPath (template), the invoking template instance and the current engine instance. Relevant documentation which drove this change: https://www.11ty.dev/docs/languages/javascript/#permalink-function -- without the change, the `permalink` member in a `_data/layouts/layout.js` layout template will fail when it's made a function like the documentation says it can. Extra are the extra parameters passed into such a class' `data` member function: template and engine. For that, a few other classes needed to have their APIs changed as well. The meat for making the `permalink` member work as a member function type is in src/Template.js, while the meat for the `data` member function is in src/Engines/JavaScript.js (the `inst.data(...)` call in there).

While working on this I did an issue search (including closed ones) on the 11ty repo in hopes to find someone had encountered the same and tackled it. Alas, not entirely: what I wanted was 11ty to produce URIs which are not exactly "cool" in the perception of 11ty, but which are at least pre/postfixed with a content hash for each page, kinda like 'immutable URIs': every URI has guaranteed never changing content.
After a few iterations I went for the custom dynamic permalink + JavaScript Layout Template approach, defining a site-global template in
_data/layouts/default.11ty.jsalong the lines of https://www.11ty.dev/docs/languages/javascript/#optional-data-method (and onwards in that page). The result was a number of failures, including the lack of template (and engine) info in both thedataandpermalinkmembers of said_data/layouts/default.11ty.js.Anyway, these issues look like they come close/near:
