Do people actually rely on the "engines" hash being respected in npm
installs any more? It was super essential in the early days when the
API was changing constantly, but now, it seems like it just makes it
unnecessarily difficult to upgrade stuff.
If no one is relying on this right now, I'm going to reduce it to a
warning. If in time, people start complaining that the warning is to
warny, we can remove it, and just let "engines" be a thing of the
past. (Note that `npm init` already doesn't bother with it, and for a
while has just defaulted to {"node":"*"}.)
Please let me know what you think. Thanks :)
