Motivation ("The Why")

It's very bad for different users prefer different registries globally, I accidentally commit unexpected changes several times.

Example

FYI, yarn 2+ and pnpm don't store registry info in their lockfile.

How

Current Behaviour

Read it from .npmrc instead.

Desired Behaviour

As title, registry should not be stored into package-lock.json, it would also make package-lock.json much smaller.
