chore: use pnpm catalog to manage dependencies

Pending: lerna/lerna#4055

This also breaks pnpm update: https://pnpm.io/catalogs#caveats

Maybe using https://github.com/antfu-collective/taze , supports pnpm catalog and named catalogs

If you don't need or care about Nx, then you could also switch to use Lerna-Lite as an alternative (which I maintain and is closer to the original Lerna code, before Nx came in). Lerna-Lite fully supports Workspace and Catalog protocols which was added a few months ago and it also works with both lerna version & publish commands (see Lerna-Lite catalog: docs).

For more info about Lerna-Lite itself, you can read this small section on the main readme, the commands are pretty much the same and so nothing new to learn. Lastly, both Workspace and Catalog protocols are purposely used within Lerna-Lite itself to make sure that everything runs smoothly (I made some fixes related to catalog as recently as last week and it's now used by VuePress ecosystem/themes projects with catalog, even Jest & Volar projects use Lerna-Lite)

I see that @KaelWD migrated the project to Lerna-Lite in this commit 7ce2ce6 to now only use and rely on lerna version to bump the versions. So with that in place, you guys can now officially switch to pnpm catalog: without any problems... you're welcome 😉

I'm the maintainer of Lerna-Lite and if it's useful to you then upvoting it would be nice 😄 I might add your project to the list of big users (you would become the 2nd biggest user after Jest, so thank you). I also saw that I missed the lerna clean command, I might add it in the future, it seems simple enough (EDIT: I worked on the clean command, but then realized that the clean command is probably easier to deal with other simpler tools and so I won't add it to Lerna-Lite).

Also pnpm update is now supported in pnpm since June of this year in v10.12.x (see this pnpm PR feat: support catalog: protocol on pnpm update)

Cheers

I know you guys have your own way of publishing with OIDC but I'm happy to say that both Lerna and Lerna-Lite now support OIDC Trusted Publishing, see Lerna-Lite@4.9.0 with a working demo: https://github.com/lerna-lite-test/oidc

Combine that with Catalogs and life is good 😄

The merge-base changed after approval.

Note that this grouping is not persistent, anything that rewrites this file such as pnpm patch-commit will rearrange everything into alphabetical order.

Good to know 👍🏼 I don't feel strongly about the order and groups, but will try to restore it if I catch it before PR is merged.
