I don't know where Rails ends and Sprockets begins but I'm supposedly an expert in this technology. It's all Rails to me. Everything in app/assets/config is Rails; manifest.js is definitely Rails. That new replacement for sprockets that uses webpack is also Rails.
The only distinction I'm trying to make is "thing that is a dependency of the gem called `rails`" vs "thing that is in your gemfile which is also maintained by the rails org"

I literally don't understand what it would mean to version these two independently because sprockets is part of Rails.

It's been over a year since I left the Rails team so I'm probably not the best person to speak on the relationship between the two at this point.
