Use corepack instead of committing a version of yarn

[sndrs]

What does this change?

sets the repo up to use corepack, rather than a version of yarn being committed the codebase.

Why?

enables seamless adoption of any alternative to yarn 1, and is now the preferred way of using yarn and supported by pnpm.

Screenshots

with an incorrect version of yarn installed, and corepack not enabled:

with no yarn installed, and corepack not enabled:

with corepack enabled (with and without another version of yarn installed):

Should corepack enable come after the node setup? Otherwise we’re relying on the version of node shipped in the action to work

EDIT: no, because it’s a known bug

Removal of ~150kLoC is very welcome!

Of course I found my answer here. And a mere 19 hours after you merged 😆
