cucumber-expressions: add dependency on util

[kubijo]

Summary

Webpack 5 has droped automatic pollyfilling of builtin nodejs modules so now we have this error:

Error: Webpack CompLooked for and couldn't find the file at the following paths:resolve 'util' in '/home/dan/work/braiins/main/web-ui/.yarn/unplugged/cucumber-expressions-npm-5.0.18-9e757759dc/node_modules/cucumber-expressions/dist/src'

BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default.
This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it.

If you want to include a polyfill, you need to:
- add a fallback 'resolve.fallback: { "util": require.resolve("util/") }'
- install 'util'
If you don't want to include a polyfill, you can use an empty module like this:
resolve.fallback: { "util": false }

Possible Solution

add util to dependencies of cucumber-expressions

Your Environment

We use cypress with cypress-cucumber-preprocessor & cypress-webpack-preprocessor-v5 (a temporary fork of @cypress/webpack-preprocessor for webpack 5 support until official release)

We only use util.deprecate and util.format in a few places. I'd prefer a solution that removes the dependency on util altogether.

• We can remove the deprecated functions in the next major release, so util.deprecate is no longer needed.
• We can replace util.format with a simple function.

That is a good point & the process of making our aforementioned setup is more complex anyway.

In general it is good to have less dependencies anyway (for more than security reasons, but those should suffice) & ideally non that are bound to specific platform (node, browser) if that is not necessary…
