npx neo-app breaks under mac os sonoma

[tobiu]

in short: we have the inquirer dependency. this one has the dependency “@ljharb/through”: “^2.3.9". this one is using call-bind, without properly requiring it.

npm i does work, but inside the npx scope and sonoma it just crashes like this:

tobiasuhlig@iMac-Pro Desktop % npx neo-app@latest
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1048
const err = new Error(message);
^

Error: Cannot find module 'call-bind'

Node.js v20.8.0

i dropped the inquirer team a not, to re-evaluate if they even still need it.

SBoudrias/Inquirer.js#1317

[tobiu]

as a workaround fix, i manually added the call-bind dependency into this package.json.

so v6.8.3 will work with sonoma. no guarantees for side effects on other os. i would love to get rid of the dependency again.
