Remove Vue 3 testing and clean up peer dependencies
What does this MR do and why?
This MR aims to simplify frontend dependencies in the gitlab-docs project, where we are slowing down development in order to move gitlab-docs-hugo forward. Since we now need to do updates manually (gitlab-org/frontend/renovate-gitlab-bot!776 (merged)), dropping some unnecessary development dependencies will lessen the amount of updates we need to review and apply.
- Drops Vue 3 tests. The Vue 3 upgrade will not happen in this project, and the tests require several dependencies. We will reintroduce these in the Hugo project (unless we can go straight to Vue 3 by then).
- Fixes peer dependency warnings on install. These were innocuous but confusing to TWs running local sites (Slack).
- Silences the CJS warning ("The CJS build of Vite's Node API is deprecated") from Rollup/Vite. This warning is also innocuous but has also been confusing to people (Slack). We have removed the deprecated build tool in gitlab-docs-hugo.
