create-daml-app: Import generated package without version (#5423)
Our plan for `daml2js` is to populate the `name` and `version` field
of the generated `package.json` files with the name and version of
the input DALF. Once this is done, you would expect to refer to the
package generated from `create-daml-app-0.1.0.dar` via
```typescript
import ... from '@daml.js/create-daml-app';`
```

Since we currently depend on the package by file paths anyway, we can
already pretend to have the right behavior in place.

In this style you can also depend on two different versions of the same
DAML package. This will happen during upgrades, a situation we're
already facing in DAVL. There it can be solved via the following two
lines in the `dependencies` field of the `package.json`:
```
  ...
  "davl-v4": "file:../daml.js/davl-0.0.4",
  "davl-v5": "file:../daml.js/davl-0.0.5",
  ...
```
