chore: install browser with @puppeteer/browsers

[ruifigueira]

Browser installation relied on a postinstall script from puppeteer package which was unreliable with npx-import.

For instance, if we have a workers project with browser binding that doesn't explicitly include puppeteer, the first time we run it it with npx wrangler dev and trigger the launch function, it will install the browser and cache it under ~/.cache/puppeteer.

But if for some reason we delete the cached browser (e.g., we run npx puppeteer browsers clear), and we try to run it the same way as above, it will fail with:

Error: Could not find Chrome (ver. 124.0.6367.207). This can occur if either
 1. you did not perform an installation before running the script (e.g. `npx puppeteer browsers install chrome`) or
 2. your cache path is incorrectly configured (which is: /Users/rfigueira/.cache/puppeteer).
For (2), check out our guide on configuring puppeteer at https://pptr.dev/guides/configuration.

After deleting the browser, and because npx-import is already installed, when we run npxImport("puppeteer@22.8.2") it will just skip the installation, and therefore it won't call the postinstall script associated with that package that actually installs and caches the browser.

I like this approach! Gets the minimal install (similar to npx-import) for people not using browser-rendering, while having reliable on-demand install for users that do, with caching!
