feat: improve logic for handling multicomplier stats result to accomodate webpack5

[eokoneyo]

This PR contains a:

• bugfix
• new feature
• code refactor
• test update
• typo fix
• metadata update

Motivation / Use-Case

This PR aims to address an issue I think is related to #390,

Details of my system setup;

• Operating System: Mac
• Node Version: v16.18.0
• NPM Version: 8.19.2
• Yarn Version: 1.22.17
• webpack Version: ^5.7.3
• ${package} Version: 2.25.2

I had a similar issue on further investigation, I realized that the problem happens because the shape of stats object returned in Webpack 5 differs from that of Webpack 4. See here.

This PR checks the returned stats object for the stats property on the returned statsResult which also present on multicomplier stats results generated from Webpack, the returned stats is handled as such if this is the case, from there on everything works like it should.
