Issues with Node v8 compatibility in new release

[ethan-arreya]

Upon installing [email protected] into our Node 8 project we were getting errors with running Grunt. The v8flags dependency changed from ~3.2.0 to 4.0.

0.613 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/grunt-cli/node_modules/v8flags/index.js:84
0.613   var flags = Array.from(process.allowedNodeEnvironmentFlags);

They invoke process.allowedNodeEnvironmentFlags which wasn't introduced into Node until v10.10. If we attempt to set NODE_OPTIONS to circumvent the errors, the object on the process variable wouldn't exist .
