* feat: Upgrade to Node 18 and remove cross-fetch (#2678)
BREAKING CHANGE: fetch now relies on the native javascript environment in browsers and node.js
Co-authored-by: justinr1234 <justinr1234@gmail.com>
- Removes need for bundlers to polyfill the `Buffer` class. `UInt8Array` are used instead which are native to the browser and node.
- Reduces bundle size 7.1kb gzipped and eliminates 4 runtime dependencies: `base-x`, `base64-js`, `buffer`, and `ieee754`.
BREAKING CHANGE: All methods that previously took a `Buffer` now accept a `UInt8Array`.

Reduces filesize by 3kb minified and gzipped or 2.8% and reduces bundler
config steps.
- Move `WSWrapper` to `@xrpl/isomorphic` to remove the need to add
mapping of `ws` to `WSWrapper` file in bundler configs
- Switch to `eventemitter3` which is smaller than `events` by almost
1kb and will not require a mapping to node's `events` in `vite`
bundling. `webpack` always automatically maps it.
- max listeners is not a thing for `eventemitter3` so we do not
need to set it to `Infinity`. `ws` uses the native event emitter which
does still need that to be set.
- Remove `eventemitter2` which was only used in tests and was replaced
with `eventemitter3`
BREAKING CHANGE: Config for frontend bundlers has changed for `ws`.
Switch to using `@noble/hashes`, `@noble/curves`, `@scure/base`,
`@scure/bip32`, and `@scure/bip39`. This replaces `crypto` polyfills
(such as `crypto-browserify`), `create-hash`, `elliptic`, `hash.js`,
`bn.js` (both versions), and their many dependencies. This also means
there are 33 less dependencies downloaded when running a fresh
`npm install` and will make the project much easier to maintain.
This reduces the bundle size by 44% (82kb minified and gzipped) over
the current 3.0 branch as well as reducing the amount of configuration
required to bundle.
Closes#1814, #1817, #2272, and #2306
