nightwatch Update Nightwatch setup in `create-vue` to latest standards.

The setup done for Nightwatch when creating a new Vue project using the create-vue tool is outdated. For example, there are a lot of dependencies which we no longer need (chromedriver, @types/nightwatch, etc.).

So, we should update the same to use the latest standards (refer to the create-nightwatch tool to see how a new project is scaffolded now), and verify that the Nightwatch tests work for all different ways of generating a Vue project (by choosing different selections each time).

Hi @thedeeppp, to work on this issue you don't need to setup the Nightwatch project, but the create-vue project and do the changes there.

If you try to setup a new project using the create-vue tool, you'll see a question "Add an End-to-End Testing Solution?" and where Nightwatch is also an option. So, if you select Nightwatch there, it will setup Nightwatch as well in the Vue project. So, we want to make changes to that Nightwatch setup to ensure that it follows the latest project standards and works with every combination of generating a Vue project.

To see how the Nightwatch project should look like according to the latest standards, you can try to setup a new Nightwatch project using npm init nightwtach@latest project-name command.
