fix(security): remove dead babel-cli@6 and babel-preset-env@1 devDeps

[conorluddy]

Summary

• Removes babel-cli@^6.26.0 and babel-preset-env@^1.7.0 from devDependencies
• These v6 packages were completely unused — all Jest ESM transforms already run via @babel/core@7, @babel/preset-env@7, and babel-jest
• Dropping them clears the babel-traverse CVE cascade, reducing audit count from 39 vulnerabilities (24 critical, 7 high) to 7 (5 moderate, 2 high)
• No runtime code changes, no test changes, no behaviour change

Test plan

• npm install — clean, no errors
• All unit test suites pass (71 passed; 5 integration failures are pre-existing, require live Postgres)
• npm run lint — no errors
• npm audit — 0 critical, 0 critical-high remaining

Code Review -- PR 471: remove dead babel-cli@6 and babel-preset-env@1 devDeps

This is a clean, focused dependency hygiene change. The removal of babel-cli@6 and babel-preset-env@1 is correct -- both packages are genuinely unused (all Jest ESM transforms already go through @babel/core@7 / babel-jest) and their presence was dragging in the babel-traverse CVE cascade.

---

Positives

• The vulnerability reduction is significant: dropping from 39 vulnerabilities (24 critical, 7 high) to 7 (5 moderate, 2 high) by removing a single dependency tree is a compelling, low-risk change.
• No runtime or test behaviour changes.
• The PR description is well-documented with before/after audit counts.

Issues / Concerns

1. This PR includes all the changes from PR #470

Both PRs modify the same auth files (logout.ts, refreshToken.ts, googleCallback.ts, etc.). These look like they diverged from the same point on main, not stacked branches. Merging either first will cause conflicts in the other. Coordinate with PR #470 -- rebase this branch on top of fix/security-high once that is merged, then the diff for this PR will reduce to only the babel removal (package.json + package-lock.json).

2. Remaining 7 vulnerabilities

The PR description notes the audit count drops to 7 (5 moderate, 2 high). It would be helpful to document what those remaining 7 are in the PR description or a follow-up issue -- specifically: are the 2 high-severity ones known/accepted, and do any have available fixes or mitigations?

3. package-lock.json version alignment

After this PR, both package.json and package-lock.json show 0.3.14, which is correct. However if this is rebased on top of PR #470 (which has the 0.3.8 lock file), make sure to run npm install to regenerate the lock file cleanly.

Summary

Area	Status
Dependency removal correctness	Correct -- packages were unused
Vulnerability reduction	Significant improvement
Overlap with PR #470	Must coordinate merge order
Remaining vulnerabilities	Document or track the 2 high-severity ones
