build: patch-package in post-install

[turadg]

UNTIL #451

incidental

Description

When running yarn install anywhere but the SDK root dir, it won't have patch-package in the postinstall so node_modules sometimes fails to have our patches.

For now, add patch-package to every package's postinstall. I also tried preventing install directly from subdirs but I didn't find a way to do that without preventing the root install process as well. This narrower approach is better anyway because the whole need will go away with #451.

Security Considerations

n/a

Scaling Considerations

n/a

Documentation Considerations

This should be removed in the course of #451. That will remove the patch-package dep so it will be obviously necessary to do this.

Testing Considerations

grep -L patch-package packages/*/package.json comes up empty

Upgrade Considerations

none

Now running into re-attempts to patch the same package because patch-package is run multiple times. ds300/patch-package#277 is open and has no progress for years.

I'm closing this to not sink any more time into it. If we want to fix this problem we should just get to Yarn 4 which manages patches itself
