Ember-inspector: Setting dependency keys using the `.property()` modifier has been deprecated

[josemarluedke]

In a nearly generated app, using ember 3.9 beta the app gets a deprecation message. This is coming from the inspector. If I disable the inspector, my app does not get the deprecation.

deprecate.js:120 DEPRECATION: Setting dependency keys using the `.property()` modifier has been deprecated. Pass the dependency keys directly to computed as arguments instead. If you are using `.property()` on a computed property macro, consider refactoring your macro to receive additional dependent keys in its initial declaration. [deprecation id: computed-property.property] See https://emberjs.com/deprecations/v3.x#toc_computed-property-property for more details.

In a quick search, I found a few places using .property().

We can likely remove the .property bits here. We'll look into it!

Happy to work on this!

👋 Hi there! I just ran into this deprecation while trying to use the inspector and happened upon this PR. I uninstalled/reinstalled the inspector only to realize that this PR hasn't actually been released yet? Any idea when it might be? It would be super helpful! 😅

Hi @vaidehijoshi! Unfortunately, we have some bug fixes we have to get in first, and those are held up by ember-table breaking in Ember 3.9, so we're kind of in a tough spot where we have to fix some bugs, to fix some bugs, to fix some bugs. Hopefully soon though!
