Remove dependency on prop-types

[jonkoops]

We're trying to reduce the amount of dependencies of our React application, and noticed that prop-types is a dependency of Victory. Since all prop-types does is validate that the props passed to a component are of a certain type, we are left wondering why it could not be handled by TypeScript at compile time instead.

Would it be possible to remove prop-types as a dependency from Victory?

Hi @jonkoops We are actively working on upgrading all components right now. I don't have a concrete timeline, but its high on the list as we prep for some larger improvements to the ecosystem.

@carbonrobot I think this one can be added to the "Improve bundle size" project as well.

@carbonrobot I believe this was done in #2758 and released in 36.9.0 and can be closed?
