Dependency error as friendly-errors-webpack-plugin still requires webpack 4

webpack-encore 1.0.5 requires webpack “^5.12” AND friendly-errors-webpack-plugin “^2.0.0-beta.1”

BUT: friendly-errors-webpack-plugin requires webpack “^4.0.0”

That gives me:

npm WARN ERESOLVE overriding peer dependency

@weaverryan boom! #976

@hailwood oh, indeed it would! It looks popular and well-maintained. It is a fork of the original… though it looks like 1.6.1 was the last shared version. We use 2.0.0-beta.2, so there could be some BC breaks. However, staying on what we have no is a non-option.

Short answer: yes, we should change to this. Would someone be willing to give it a try?
