Install Development Packages

Development dependencies are packages used during development and testing but are not required by the application's runtime implementation.

We will install:

- Jest for automated tests.
- Supertest for HTTP integration testing.
- Nodemon as an alternative development restart utility.

We will use Node.js watch mode in the main development workflow, but Nodemon is included as an alternative.
