GH-43572: [JS] Move most dependencies to the devDependencies

[sgonyea]

Rationale for this change

Adding apache-arrow as a dependency causes its dependencies to interact with the projects own dependencies. It's also bloating up JS build sizes.

Moving these dependencies to devDependencies will resolve this issue.

What changes are included in this PR?

Moves most dependencies to devDependencies in the package.json.

Are these changes tested?

n/a

Are there any user-facing changes?

This does not change user-facing APIs.

This probably breaks the cli, no? I also think it's common to have typescript typings as dependencies.

Iirc there was a similar pr recently that didn't work.

@domoritz Thanks for the review! I updated the PR to restore some of the imports used in the bin commands.

It looks like the only js/bin being exported is the arrow2csv. But I restored the deps being imported directly in the js/bin to be safe.

I think we need tslib and the helpers, though, no?

Here is the pull request I was tinking of with discussion of why we need the dependencies: #43215. We could make the package lighter by removing the CLI tool from the public API. Would you like to make a pull request for that?

[domoritz]

these are indeed not needed since the cli doesn't expose types I think

[domoritz]

These are dependencies since they are needed at runtime or for correct types.

Where'd this go? Need any help?

[domoritz]

I didn't get a response to my suggestion to remove the cli.
