fix(docs-json): use dts-bundle-generator to bundle types for docs-json (

#4619)

This fixes an issue that crops up when building documentation using the
`docs-json` output target.

When #4212 was merged it included a change to
`src/declarations/stencil-public-docs.ts` which involved adding imports
from private Stencil type declarations. Previously this file had no
imports and so was "standalone", however, after this change it now
imported some types from `"./private"`.

This created a problem when using the `docs-json` output target because
when building a Stencil project with that output target enabled the
compiled typedef corresponding to `stencil-public-docs.ts` is copied out
of `node_modules` and into the users project. See here:

https://github.com/ionic-team/stencil/blob/43cfc584c8fbcb77122cbf2a813b1a0303085dce/src/compiler/docs/json/index.ts#L16-L18

This commit fixes the issue by using `dts-bundle-generator` to inline
the types imported by `stencil-public-docs.ts` so that the resulting
`.d.ts` file has no external dependencies and is therefore portable.
