Replace/remove faker library #378

We should upgrade (or remove) the faker library to the forked package:

Faker.js helps users create large amounts of data for testing and development. The maintainer deliberately removed the functional code from this package. This appears to be a purposeful and successful attempt to make the package unusable. This is related to the colors.js CVE-2021-23567.

The functional code for this package was forked and can be found here.

Thanks for flagging. I don't know how exactly this got added (looks like something that snuck in when I converted from snowpack to vite.) Good catch!
