Resolves https://www.pika.dev/npm/snowpack/discuss/395
node-fetch is a Node-specific polyfill for the browser-native fetch API. It really should never make its way into your web-based project, but some npm dependencies reference it internally. At worst it will break (see discussion) and at best it's unnecessary bloat for your final build.
On the Pika CDN, we actually replace node-fetch and whatwg-fetch with native calls to the fetch API. This PR brings that same kind of handling to Snowpack.
