Description
Currently one must list all transitive dependencies of a module in :depends-on -- transitive deps could be inferred from immediate deps. see: https://clojurians.slack.com/archives/C6N245JGG/p1559812431073100

Research direction
Start by locating shadow-cljs's handling of module :depends-on declarations and read the linked Clojurians Slack discussion for the intended dependency semantics. Determine how immediate dependencies could provide transitive dependencies, then verify that modules no longer need redundant declarations while preserving correct compilation behavior.
