[Enhancement] Simplify uuid test workaround

[justinkambic]

Feature summary

In #275 we implemented a workaround solution that will allow our tests to run in newer versions of Jest. It may be possible to simplify what we've done in a follow-up by having jest ignore uuid when it is transforming the TS, which would allow us to omit a custom resolver.

Why is this feature important?

It will simplify the unit testing infrastructure.

If I understood it correctly, all the files under node_modules are ignored by transformers as default, meaning uuid module should be ignored. The way I see it, it's not the problem of transforming the TS but that uuid only provides ESM when we simulate the environment as a browser(jsdom). More details are described here:

• Jest's support for package.json exports can resolve files incorrectly
• chore(deps-dev): bump jest from 27.5.1 to 28.0.0 microsoft/accessibility-insights-web#5421 (comment)

It sounds like for now we will keep the existing solution, so closing this.
