Description

Right now, we're doing a lot of this manually, and flattening the package-lock.json file. It'll save a lot (and likely protect against future breakage) to use this instead:

Research direction

Start by reading the npm-logical-tree documentation and tracing the current manual flattening of package-lock.json in synp. Replace that approach with a traversable dependency graph, then verify that the converter still handles the package-lock.json and yarn.lock workflows without the existing manual dependency processing.
