Description
### How did you install the Amplify CLI?
npm
### If applicable, what version of Node.js are you using?
16.20.2
### Amplify CLI Version
12.12.6
### What operating system are you using?
Linux (and Windows WSL)
### Did you make any manual changes to the cloud resources managed by Amplify? Please describe the changes made.
No
### Describe the bug
amplify push (or pull) always chooses yarn for me (and pnpm for a developer on my team) even though the package manager we've been using is npm and there is a package-lock.json file in the repo.
We've been away from this project for a couple months and we haven't made *ANY* changes to the repo/project/amplify and this behaviour just started when we upgraded our amplify. Not sure which version we were running prior.
### Expected behavior
Use npm as was being done before.
### Reproduction steps
just type `amplify pull` or `amplify push` on our project that has a package-lock.json in the root
Please note: there is not a yarn.lock file anywhere to be seen in this amplify project folder structure. I have made tripley sure of this.

warning package-lock.json found. Your project contains lock files generated by tools other than Yarn. It is advised not to mix package managers in order to avoid resolution inconsistencies caused by unsynchronized lock files. To clear this warning, remove package-lock.json.
... and lots more yarn failures
### Additional information
I fixed this by deleting yarn from my computer. My colleague fixed it by renaming her pnpm binary.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the problem with `amplify pull` or `amplify push` in a project containing `package-lock.json`, then trace the packaging overrides step that invokes `yarn install`. Done means package-manager detection selects npm for this project and the operation completes without requiring yarn or pnpm.
