eth-json-rpc-provider migration - B3: Align dependencies with monor…

…epo. (#1766)

## Explanation

This PR implements the following incremental step in the process for
migrating `eth-json-rpc-provider` into the core monorepo:

***

### Phase B: Staging in `migrated-packages/`
#### 3. Align dependencies with monorepo.
- [x] Remove redundant dependencies that are already listed in the root
package.json.
- [x] Bump remaining dependency versions so that they align with other
non-root packages.

***

See #1551 (comment)
for an outline of the entire process.
