Use NPM Workspaces

[jonathantneal]

Brief Description

This updates the project to use built-in npm workspaces.

• Adds package.json#workspaces, matching the configuration used in lerna.json.
• Adds .npmrc to workspace root to synchronize package manager preferences project-wide.
• Removes lerna in favor of workspaces.
• Removes lerna.json in favor of package.json#workspaces.
• Removes .github/workflows/publish.yml per direction this file is no longer in use.
• Removes .husky/pre-push per direction this file is no longer in use.
• Removes .scripts/release.js per direction this file is no longer in use.
• Removes references to lerna in CONTRIBUTING.md.
• Updates all package-lock.json files to reflect the new project configuration.
• Synchronizes jest and @types/jest dependencies to ^27.5.1, to resolve hoisting issues during npm run build.
• Adds "typeRoots": ["node_modules/@types"] to the react tsconfig.json, to resolve typing issues due to it using testing-library’s jsdom. This is a newer version of jsdom that the rest of the project has not yet updated to.

Motivation and Context

Our team discussed moving from lerna to built-in npm workspaces, due to various, increasing compatibility issues we encountered with lerna, and a perceived lack of upkeep by its new maintainers. We decided that using built-in npm workspaces resolves the compatibility issues and reduces the technical overhead required to work with this project.

Package Manager Preferences

These only reflect the default values, which allow overrides per operation.

• Audit reports will not be run alongside the current npm command automatically.
• NPM will not exit with an error code when run-script is invoked for a script that isn't defined in the scripts section of package.json.
• NPM will use lockfile v3 for package-lock.json files, which is faster to read and smaller on disk. Lockfile v3 requires NPM v7+, and our repository has required NPM v8 for quite some time.
• NPM will bypass staleness checks for cached data, so that only missing data will be requested from the server.
• NPM will save new dependencies with a patch semver lock, rather than minor semver lock.
