Set packageManager

This is set to avoid issue with tools like dependabot that may run a different version of yarn resulting in a different yarn.lock version.

I could improve this using copier-templates-extensions to run jlpm --version. But that will add a dependency.

I'm having second thought about this one as yarn will complain if corepack is not enabled by the user. And it is not by default as this is officially still an experimental feature of NodeJS.

Should we keep that as a trick for fixing our CI instead of pushing it to everybody?

The complaint is just a warning, right? Or does it error out?

I have found corepack to be... not a great user experience, under any condition.

I agree and I'm really sad that yarn went all-in that experimental feat' that is far from stable between nodeJS versions.

So I'm gonna revert this one
