Description

Make version and publish as optional commands. This change will in summary turn every command of the lib as optional commands (except init which is a tiny command) and the CLI is now a dependency of all of these optional command.

This is a breaking change and the users will have to do this change on their end if they still want to use version and publish

- "@lerna-lite/cli": "2.0.0",      <-- you could also keep it, it will be installed behind the scene anyway
+ "@lerna-lite/publish": "2.0.0"
+ "@lerna-lite/version": "2.0.0",  <-- you could skip version since it's tightly coupled to the publish pkg

Also note that @lerna-lite/version is a strict dependency of @lerna-lite/publish, so just installing the publish package will automatically provide the version as well. Behind the scene it will install the following

"@lerna-lite/cli": "2.0.0",
"@lerna-lite/publish": "2.0.0"
"@lerna-lite/version": "2.0.0",

Motivation and Context

The issue #450 highlighted the fact that some users, not just in that issue, are actually using only the run and/or exec commands and they're not interested in publish and version commands since they have their own process for publishing releases (or sometime not publishing at all). The new watch command could also be another example of a command that could be used as a standalone without having to install and download version and publish

• closes Make the @lerna-lite/version and @lerna-lite/publish dependencies optional #450
