[BUG] Un-deprecating a package returns EUSAGE error

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

This issue exists in the latest npm version

• I am using the latest npm

Current Behavior

When trying to un-deprecate certain versions of my @kipper/base module, there is an error saying there is a usage error, despite following the guidelines on the docs page:

To un-deprecate a package, specify an empty string ("") for the message argument. Note that you must use double quotes with no space between them to format an empty string.
From here

My command:

npm deprecate @kipper/base@0.2.0 ""

The output:

npm ERR! code EUSAGE

Expected Behavior

The command should execute properly and un-deprecate the package.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Login into npm using npm login
2. Run npm deprecate PACKAGE@VERSION ""

Environment

• npm: 8.8.0
• Node.js: 16.13.0
• OS Name: Windows
• System Model Name: Custom
• npm config:

; "builtin" config from C:\Users\Luna\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\npm\npmrc

prefix = "C:\\Users\\Luna\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm"

; "global" config from C:\Users\Luna\AppData\Roaming\npm\etc\npmrc

; python = "C:\\Users\\Luna\\.windows-build-tools\\python27\\python.exe" ; overridden by user

; "user" config from C:\Users\Luna\.npmrc

@kipper:registry = "https://registry.npmjs.org/"
//registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken = (protected)
python = "C:\\Users\\Luna\\.windows-build-tools\\python27\\python.exe"
scope = "@kipper"

; node bin location = C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe
; node version = v16.13.0
; npm local prefix = C:\Users\Luna
; npm version = 8.8.0
; cwd = C:\Users\Luna
; HOME = C:\Users\Luna
; Run `npm config ls -l` to show all defaults.

Start at lib/commands/deprecate.js, where the verbose stack identifies the failing exec path, and reproduce the command with an empty message argument. Trace how the command validates its arguments, then verify that npm deprecate PACKAGE@VERSION "" completes successfully and removes the deprecation.
