Update to web3.js 1.0.0-beta.46

There should be a lot of stability improvements. Unfortunately, the new TypeScript types create typing errors on our side. They are probably resolved fast.

Especially web-socket connections are buggy at the moment and an update should fix this. See web3/web3.js#1965 (comment)

When I run truffle migrate --network devilnet with the following network configuration:

devilnet: {
      websockets: true,        // Enable EventEmitter interface for web3 (default: false)
      provider: () => new Web3.providers.WebsocketProvider("ws://localhost:8546", {
        headers: {
          Origin: "127.0.0.1"
        }
})

I get the following error:

/home/xyz/node_modules/web3-providers/dist/web3-providers.cjs.js:304
event = this.getSubscriptionEvent(response.params.subscription);
                                                  ^

Thanks for your input @Bowfish, but I don't understand the connection to this issue.
