Resolves various vulnerabilities for dependencies referenced in this package's package-lock.json NPM lockfile. All of these dependencies are development-only (e.g. they are intended for use by developers of this package).

Also bump jquery to 4.0.0 - this is a bit questionable, because jquery is not really a runtime dependency of this component yet -- it was originally intended to be, with the objective of making the source code more succinct.

The vulnerabilities resolved are:

We don't import/require these modules directly, and their indirect usage via this repository's gulpfile.js appears minimal, appropriate and safe -- however, I cannot guarantee that developers using this codebase would not have been in-practice vulnerable at all to these reported vulnerabilities.

Testing this locally caused me to observe that Firefox with canvas-fingerprint detection enabled introduces noise to the displayed/submitted screenshots -- I had noticed this before in production, but had not yet identified the cause. I'll report a privacy investigation issuethread for that soon.
