Build: cleanup dependencies

[axe312ger]

Some dependencies are obsolete, so lets get rid of them.

Part of #2334

[marcolink]

Are we using any implementation from it, or just types?

[axe312ger]

I think just the types: Would you move it to dev dependency?

[marcolink]

What about not using it at all and maybe changing the imports🤔

[axe312ger]

well we support json-patch requests in the API, so we should also provide the correct types. We can fix the imports to use import type to make sure we never include these imports outside of TS

[marcolink]

But all current references are only pointing to the types package. Is the plan to already pull it in because we will use the actual implementation in the future?

[axe312ger]

I added it because it was a missing dependency which got installed through sth else.

I guess the original author added it so we don't need to maintain our own type for this action. As we need https://json.schemastore.org/json-patch as a TS type :)

I see two options:

• use import type and move it to dev dependencies
• add our own TS type for the json-patch request. Maybe the same as the CTF backend uses? 🤔

[marcolink]

what ever it takes to not maintain our own implementation :)

@marcolink #2339

is this worth the changes? 🤔

[marcolink]

I'd say yes :) - and since you already did it ...
