Subject: [PATCH] Reduce package size by excluding unused 'deps' directory

The 'deps' directory in the node-rdkafka package is significantly large (around 98MB), constituting roughly 83% of the total package size. Seems like removing that directory is not affect the functionality.

This pull request proposes removing the 'deps' directory to decrease the package size.

**File size breakdown (before this change):**

118M	.
