Allow fetching license info from `peerDependencies` and `optionalDependencies`

See original GitHub issue

license-report outputs all licenses from dependencies and devDependencies.

Please, add support of peerDependencies, optionalDependencies, and bundledDependencies as well. I would like to be able to retrieve the license info for the packages from these three extra dependencies.

Thanks for the idea to make license-report more complete. I do understand the peerDependencies and the optionalDependencies.

But according to the documentation of npm, packages listed in bundledDependencies do not contain any version info and must be also part of dependencies. Do you have a real live example of bundledDependencies?
