CLI seems to depend on recent chalk, but it is not a devDependency

...react-native info hangs at that point on my system, which I suppose is a different issue

Description

error _chalk(...).default.dim is not a function
TypeError: _chalk(...).default.dim is not a function
    at /home/mike/work/foo/bar/node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android/build/link/warnAboutManuallyLinkedLibs.js:56:219

This line depends on a "modern" chalk library:

https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/blob/master/packages/platform-android/src/link/warnAboutManuallyLinkedLibs.js#L42

But my setup for whatever reason had an old one (0.4.0). After I did npm i --save-dev chalk to get a modern one, I was able to proceed past the error

Should CLI declare a devDependency on chalk?

Reproducible Demo

Thanks! cli-platform-android needs to have a dependency on chalk.
