typescript is a dependency but only included as a devDependency #770

This issue is with regards to the package @typescript-eslint/typescript-estree.

The compiled version of parser.js contains this line:

const ts = __importStar(require("typescript")); // leave this as * as ts so people using util package don't need syntheticDefaultImports

If TypeScript isn't present, the package cannot be used.

In my case, I have an eslint plugin that use this package under the hood. The plugin fails to load if TypeScript isn't present (i.e. the plugin is being used to lint a project that doesn't use TypeScript).

$ /path/to/project/node_modules/.bin/eslint .
Error: Failed to load plugin 'someplugin' declared in '.eslintrc': Cannot find module 'typescript'

I believe the solution to this issue would be to have @typescript-eslint/typescript-estree declare TypeScript as either a dependency or a peerDependency.
