Not sure what the root cause is here, or if this is even a real issue, but I 
figured I'd flag it...

It looks like the `apache-arrow` npm package (and the @apache-arrow/* packages) 
are pointing at an out of date fork of flatbuffers from @trxcllnt, which can be 
seen with:
```
npm view [email protected] dependencies.flatbuffers
```
which shows `github:trxcllnt/flatbuffers-esm` instead of `1.9.0`, which is what 
[js/package.json](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/js/package.json#L61)
 leads me to believe it should be.

The description of the 
[trxcllnt/flatbuffers-esm](https://github.com/trxcllnt/flatbuffers-esm) repo 
says:
> temporary repo to use in Arrow until 
> https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/pull/4504 is merged

That PR was merged on Dec 1, 2017, so I think we're good to point back at 
mainline [flatbuffers](https://www.npmjs.com/package/flatbuffers).
