Add babel runtime version to transform-runtime plugin to reduce bundle size

[topaxi]

(Reopening due to force-push #7725)

By default, babel assumes babel/helpers version 7.0.0-beta.0, this PR explicitly resolves the helpers to match the provide functions.

See: babel/babel#10261

Looking at the code in babel-plugin-transform-runtime/src/index.js it does not seem to be enough to provide an absolute path to the runtime.

I can confirm there are several issues with the version of helpers being used. Our bundle size is very bloated thanks to ownKeys and doesn't have some Object.keys polyfills leading to crashes.

All research points to this PR being the fix.

@topaxi have you verified that this change shrinks your bundle size?

[topaxi]

Yes, this reduces the filesize of each of our chunks by about 200 bytes after gzip.

Thanks @topaxi!

@topaxi @ianschmitz Is there a reason we're not doing the same when compiling dependencies here? Just curious.

Edit: Nevermind. Looks like @babel/runtime is excluded from dependencies.
