Figure out npm v7 and lockfileVersion 2
See original GitHub issueRunning npm install with npm 7 on the repo currently doubles the length of the lockfile as part of converting it to version 2. I’m not sure what’s going on here. When I just had to add a new dependency, I ended up manually editing some of the changes to the lockfile back out. At least npm ci with npm v7 seems to leave things unchanged.
(Maybe this is a good opportunity to switch to using pnpm?)

Through the passage of time, I’ve stopped really caring about this. I’m fine if we want to upgrade to lockfile v2.
