Update dependency versions.

[evocateur]

Many of yuidoc's dependencies are getting quite long in the tooth. No tests fail after these updates, but I'm running some locally linked tests using other tools that consume yuidocjs to verify.

Can you be more explicit about the failures? the changes seem to be completely arbitrary.

Can we take these changes and look at adapting them to use enumerated ranges or 1.2.x format values?

@caridy These are just backward-compatible dependency updates. Using up-to-date dependencies gives npm and opportunity to dedupe things when other sibling dependencies might depend on the same modules (graceful-fs and rimraf are extremely common, for example).

@lexander Other than the aforementioned rimraf and graceful-fs (which use 2.x), all the other dependencies (save YUI) are listed in the 1.2.x style (equivalent to~1.2). I'm not sure we should loosen the yui dependency, but I'm open to 3.14.x.

Keeping graceful-fs and rimraf pinned to major version only allows important updates to modules that I've found to be very dependable adherents to semver. graceful-fs 2.0 was a very dramatic future-compatible rewrite, as well as potentially fixing many of the "I don't know why graceful-fs is barfing here" comments I've seen throughout the source.

Ok Ok, we should NOT care about new versions for the sake of dedupping, specially because yuidocs IS a devtime tool. In other words, if there is a bug, or if there is a new feature, or some big improvements in terms of time to generate docs, etc, I will be reluctant to upgrade.

Aside from that, there are changes in this diff that will just don't have any effect, e.g.: "minimatch": "~0.2.11", ---> "minimatch": "0.2.x",.

Again, I just don't want to merge arbitrary changes with unknown consequences. I'm not saying that we will not merge this, I'm saying that we should clean this PR to only upgrade those pkgs that we really need to upgrade, listing the reasons why.

[evocateur]

I really do think we should bump the yui dependency, possibly even to a looser 3.x spec.
