Installation - pnpm install fails with ERR_PNPM_EXOTIC_SUBDEP under pnpm v11 due to default exotic-subdependency blocking

[rapcmia]

Describe the bug

While validating both development and #630, the pnpm install fails with ERR_PNPM_EXOTIC_SUBDEP. The blocked dependency is avsc, resolved as a git-hosted tarball through @solflare-wallet/utl-sdk -> @metaplex-foundation/js -> @bundlr-network/client -> arbundles.

This appears tied to pnpm version behavior rather than branch-specific code changes. In this environment, pnpm v11.0.9 fails with default settings, while pnpm v10.x works in normal setups unless strict exotic-subdependency blocking is explicitly enabled.

• I assume the affected version range are from pnpm v11.x ❌
• Last version tested pnpm v10.33.4 ✅

Steps to reproduce

• Use pnpm v11.x (for example v11.0.9)
• Checkout development (or other gateway branches)
• Run pnpm install
• Observe ERR_PNPM_EXOTIC_SUBDEP referencing git-hosted transitive avsc
