Sean Perkins 16c77ccdc8 refactor: use capacitor types for native plugins (#27755)
Issue number: Internal

---------

<!-- Please do not submit updates to dependencies unless it fixes an
issue. -->

<!-- Please try to limit your pull request to one type (bugfix, feature,
etc). Submit multiple pull requests if needed. -->

## What is the current behavior?
<!-- Please describe the current behavior that you are modifying. -->

Ionic currently detects and uses Capacitor APIs for different plugins
(haptics, status bar and keyboard). This implementation does not have
type safety and can result in unexpected behaviors.

## What is the new behavior?
<!-- Please describe the behavior or changes that are being added by
this PR. -->

- Adds `@capacitor/core`, `@capacitor/keyboard`, `@capacitor/haptics`
and `@capacitor/status-bar` as dev dependencies. These should _only_ be
used with `import type { }`.
- Refactors the plugin usages to be typed against the plugin packages,
while using a duplicate enum when needing a value. This allows us to not
bundle the capacitor plugins with Ionic Framework.
- Introduces a `getCapacitor()` function for interacting with the
`window.Capacitor` object through a typed object.

**How does it work?**

The idea is we want the type safety from the Capacitor packages, without
directly bundling that source code within Ionic Framework. This means we
use the Capacitor deps where a type is needed, but clone any enums where
a value is referenced. If a Capacitor dep changes the supported values,
Typescript will fail to compile and that will signal to use to update
our enum values to match any changes.

## Does this introduce a breaking change?

- [ ] Yes
