Re: [pgAdmin][RM6207] Update JS dependencies

Hi,

The imagemin-gifsicle package is used to compress gif images. The latest
version of imagemin-gifsicle requires the binaries to be built from source,
which has a big dependency of dh-autoreconf.
pgAdmin has very few gifs. Instead of installing dh-autoreconf, I've
removed imagemin-gifsicle from package.json since the cost of installing
dh-autoreconf is more than the output of compressing gif.
Attached is the patch.
