middleware-retry includes react-native #2051
Description
Describe the bug
This otherwise innocuous package includes react-native-get-random-values, which in turn installs all of react-native. It's listed as a production dependency, though it does not appear to be used.
Its adds over 100mb to the install size of the dynamodb-client
❯ npm ls react-native

I understand that this is done to handle this issue while running in certain environments, but this is a nuclear solution. I think it would be better to push this onto apps that need it, or find a uuid package that doesn't require all of react-native to be installed.
For users in node environments this is a huge counter to the modular nature of this sdk.
