When upgrading from 7 to 8, npm and classic Yarn would not automatically install postman-request because it's a peer-dep and not a direct dep. By making postman-request a direct dep, upgrades will go smoother. To minimize the need to upgrade this module due to a vuln that's found later in postman-request, we intentionally use the `^` notation to accept any newer patch version, so users would be able to update their lock files without requiring a new release of this module.

Yesterday I suspected that maybe we should move away
from a peer dependency

And today I researched that more and confirmed, that

go smoother.
To minimize the need to upgrade this module due to a

use the
^notation to accept any newer patch version,so users would be able to update their lock files without
requiring a new release of this module.
To force the package-lock.json to reflect the change I rebuilt it, which created some additional churn there, although it's probably for the best as it freshed a few more things in the dependency chain.
