This PR addresses a security concern regarding the csvjson package, which has a known prototype pollution vulnerability and has been unmaintained for several years.

Changes:

  1. New Internal Helper: Created src/helpers/csvjson.js which provides the toObject functionality needed for parsing JMeter CSV results.
  2. Security Mitigation: The new helper explicitly filters out __proto__, constructor, and prototype keys from CSV headers to prevent prototype pollution attacks.
  3. Dependency Removal: Uninstalled the csvjson package from the project's dependencies.
  4. Refactoring: Updated src/parsers/jmeter.js to use the new local helper.
  5. Testing: Added tests/csvjson.helper.spec.js to verify the new helper's functionality, including its security features and edge cases (custom delimiters, quotes, etc.).

All existing tests pass, and coverage has been maintained.

…helper

Replaced the unmaintained and vulnerable `csvjson` package with a secure,
minimal internal implementation in `src/helpers/csvjson.js`. This resolves
the prototype pollution security issue while reducing the overall dependency
footprint.

- Extracted necessary CSV-to-Object logic.
- Implemented prototype pollution protection by filtering unsafe headers.
- Refactored `src/parsers/jmeter.js` to use the new internal helper.
- Added comprehensive tests and verified with existing test suite.
