  1. deps: update npm to 5.4.2

    This includes three npm releases, one of which is pretty big (5.4.0).
    
    Changes of Note
    
    * Significant performance boost for installations from cache (~10%+)
    * A number of bugfixes for important and severe bugs affecting
      installation on all supported platforms, but particularly noticeable
      on Windows.
    * More Windows-related fixes for `npx`.
    * [nodejs#17844](npm/npm#17844)
      Make package-lock.json sorting locale-agnostic. This will cause
      some users to see seemingly spurious diffs on their pkglocks if
      they were using previous versions of npm5, because, for example,
      `JSONStream` is sorted into a different location. This is fine and
      will go away as people upgrade.
    
    Changelogs
    
    * [`v5.4.0`](https://github.com/npm/npm/releases/tag/v5.4.0)
    * [`v5.4.1`](https://github.com/npm/npm/releases/tag/v5.4.1)
    * [`v5.4.2`](https://github.com/npm/npm/releases/tag/v5.4.2)
