feat: update code to not need implicit any, add hasProperty util (#9394)

* update deps including typescript
* fix a few issues along the way
* improve code robustness for example for type checks and index accesses
* remove need for suppressImplicitAnyIndexErrors
* introduces new utility method `hasProperty` which checks whether the
object has the property and it's not undefined
