suggestion: `deno upgrade --deps` (to keep dependencies up-to-date)

[iuioiua]

Deno is a batteries-included runtime. One common task for maintenance is keeping dependencies up-to-date while ensuring tests are passing. Having this functionality in a module might be cool, but it might be of greater value if included in the runtime itself. I'll outline this idea in greater detail once I get a chance.

Can this be escalated ?

Currently, deno dependency management is too much underfeatured :
No way to have information on dependencies (nor directly from the deno.json through the LSP), no way to update them nor know what version are available, etc

It's being worked on in #26219

See pnpm update

Also, running a similar workflow than pnpm dedup would be nice
