Update deps (semver-major)

[sam-github]

Replaces #31

https://github.com/nodejs/Release

8, 10, and 12 are still supported

11 is supported until june 1

NOTE this is semver-major:

1. Because it drops CI for old versions
2. Because Buffer.from doesn't exist on out of support node versions (definitely not 0.10, I didn't check when it appears)
3. The latest tap and debug don't suport 0.10 (and I didn't check what their earliest supported version is)

I suggest that it be merged and published as a major update after #35 lands (it currently is based off that branch).

I guess travis doesn't use the .travis.yml from this branch, but from master?

Failures on node < 8.x above were expected.

By replacing PRs instead of merging them from others you are discouraging contributors from submitting PRs.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I thought your interest was as an employee of IBM, I see now that I was wrong. I'd like you to reconsider how your comment

I'm over my head and don't know the solution.

from #31 (comment) would sound to someone like me who has the responsibility of supporting Loopback and IBM across Node.js.

Would you like authorship attribution on d965a1c and d9959ce ? I'm happy to do that (with your permission).

I'm happy to consider it.

It doesn't change any of the facts on the ground. I'm a user of the syslog module that came along and invested some time and effort into improving it. Again. I created PRs that could have been merged. Instead of merging you create new commits that do the same things. What's an outside contributor to think? Especially since no outside PRs have ever been merged to this repo. Submitting PRs is contributing and common courtesy is to either request/suggest improvements if needed, and when they are good enough, merge them so the author gets attribution. Submitting PRs is permission and an implicit request.

I reassigned authorship to you for the two commits that update travis and package config.
