Unify proto JS API for tracker and griffin UI

[atuchin-m]

The PR reimplements finch_tracker and griffin.brave.com using protobuf-ts instead protobufjs
Also it reuses the serializer from seed_tools that will result in changing the format in finch-data-private

[goodov]

before this change the logic for revive and replace was in the same file close to each other. Now it's spread a bit. Can we do something here?

Description

This PR makes significant changes to the brave-variations project, primarily focusing on updating the protobuf implementation and refactoring the codebase to use a new protobuf-ts library instead of the previously used protobufjs. The changes also include updates to file processing, serialization, and various utility functions.

Possible Issues

1. The removal of protobufjs and protobufjs-cli dependencies might break existing functionality if they were used elsewhere in the project.
2. The changes in serialization and processing logic might lead to unexpected behavior in downstream components that rely on the previous implementation.

Security Hotspots

No significant security hotspots were identified in this PR.
