Reduce the CLI's npm install size #1305

Description

@DaveHanns

The Apify CLI's install footprint has grown. Reduce what npm install pulls in to speed up installs (including CI) and cut disk usage, without dropping functionality.

Directions to explore:

  • Audit and trim dependencies: drop unused ones, replace heavy packages with lighter alternatives.
  • Move dev-only packages out of runtime dependencies.
  • Lazy-load or externalize rarely used code paths.
  • Track install size over time to catch regressions.
