(aws-cdk): IAM Diff CLI error due to updates in `tables` dependency

The table dependency recently updated their validation to not allow additional properties. The CloudFormation diff however, seems to be using an unknown property useWordWrap.

This results in the CLI terminating prematurely and printing an error in the table dependency.

Reproduction Steps

1. Setup a project with IAM changes
2. Run cdk diff

What did you expect to happen?

A diff should be output.

What actually happened?

❯ yarn cdk diff
yarn run v1.22.5
$ cdk diff

This is 🐛 Bug Report

[c22]

Note to maintainers, this issue can block deployments as cdk deploy will run a diff first by default to show IAM changes.

Workaround for blocked deployments is to rollback to previous version or add --require-approval never.

Seems there’s an upgrade to “table” package which is breaking the diff command. Try to add the following to package.json:

"resolutions": {
    "table": "6.0.4"
},

Worked for me (running cdk 1.78.0 and 1.82.0). It is a temporary fix until the issue is solved.
