Fix failing security tests
This commit changes the behavior of auditing to audit only production dependencies. Security checks have been failing for months due to Vue CLI dependencies and lack of resolution from the developers. This commit makes auditing ignore development dependencies. The reasons include: - Vulnerabilities in developer dependencies cause pipelines to fail on every run. - This is caused by dependencies such that lack resolution from the developers. Vue developers consider `npm audit` broken design and do not prioritize solutions. Discussions: vuejs/vue-cli#6637, vuejs/vue-cli#6621, vuejs/vue-cli#6555, vuejs/vue-cli#6553, vuejs/vue-cli#6523, vuejs/vue-cli#6486, vuejs/vue-cli#6632. - Development packages are not relevant for the production payload. - False positives create behavior of ignoring them completely instead of taking action, which creates a security vulnerability itself. - Failed tests are shown in a badge on README file, giving wrong picture of security posture of users. `npm audit --omit=dev` is used instead of `npm audit --production` which is deprecated as of npm v8.7.0 npm/cli#4744. This commit also removes exiting with output of `npm audit` command to fix exiting with textual output, leading to failures.
