fix: Fix failing generator tests in PR #1812

- Fixed package_json gem integration by ensuring arrays are passed to manager.add()
- Fixed test mocking issues with webpack config file reading
- Corrected test expectations to match actual behavior
- Fixed mock setup for package_json manager and fallback scenarios
- All message_deduplication_spec tests now pass
