Relax or remove the node engine check from package.json

[michaelwnelson]

npm has removed support for "engineStrict": true in package.json and what you put in engines in package.json is purely advisory.

Unfortunately, Yarn went in a opposite direction and actually enforces the check unless you pass the --ignore-engines flag. This means people with the latest yarn installed are unable to yarn add angularjs-dropdown-multiselect until they learn about this flag.

Example of the error:

$ yarn add angularjs-dropdown-multiselect
yarn add v0.19.1
[1/4] Resolving packages...
[2/4] Fetching packages...
error angularjs-dropdown-multiselect@1.10.2: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "0.10.10".
error Found incompatible module
info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/add for documentation about this command.

So, I think the engines field of package.json should either removed completely or at least relaxed to the following:

"engines": {
    "nodes": ">=0.10.10"
}

Will this be backported for v1 consumers? Since 2 is still in beta?
