refactor: replace strip-ansi with native node util

[Namchee]

Overview

This pull request replaces strip-ansi dependency with native Node util stripVTControlCharacters that do the same thing.

This utility is available since Node 16.11

Oh, I didn't know there was a routine exposed from node. (I wrote one last year!)

I was bit concerned whether really does the same thing, as the node code is undocumented regex. However strip-ansi has a note:

Node.js has this built-in now with stripVTControlCharacters. The benefit of this package is consistent behavior across Node.js versions and faster improvements. The Node.js version is actually based on this package.

cliui is using the family of string-width, strip-ansi, and wrap-ansi. So we get self-consistent behaviour by using strip-ansi. Removing strip-ansi on its own makes no difference to install footprint, as still depended on by the other packages.

  "dependencies": {
    "string-width": "^7.2.0",
    "strip-ansi": "^7.1.0",
    "wrap-ansi": "^9.0.0"
  },

So I think the suggestion was reasonable, but I don't think it is useful at this time on its own.

Benjamin may have different view, so leaving PR open for second opinion.

Thanks for looking into this!

As for your concern, I have investigated this issue and I found out that it seems that the behaviour is consistent on Node 22.10 onwards
