P1 Badge Declare npm as a build dependency

This PKGBUILD runs npm in package(), but it only declares nodejs in depends and no makedepends. In Arch clean-chroot builds, only declared deps are installed for the build; because npm is packaged separately, this can fail immediately with npm: command not found. Add npm to makedepends so the packaging step has the required tool.

P2 Badge Avoid network dependency resolution in package()

Running npm install -g on the tarball here causes npm to fetch transitive dependencies during package(), which are not declared in source/checksums and will fail in offline or egress-restricted builders. Since this package has runtime dependencies and no bundled modules, builds become non-reproducible and can break depending on registry access. Package from pre-vendored sources (or otherwise avoid dependency downloads during package()).
