Drops support for end of life Node 8.

Notes:

  • yargs@15.4.0 was released a few days ago, which includes much of @mleguen's work migrating to TypeScript (we should be mindful that we might need to port a few fixes back to this release line.).
  • we should not release yargs@16.x.x until we've finished the full TypeScript conversion, this includes @QmarkC's work on yargs-parser.

this functionality was replaced with a GitHub Action.

if (process && process.version) {
const major = Number(process.version.match(/v([^.]+)/)[1])
if (major < minNodeVersion) {
throw Error(`yargs supports a minimum Node.js version of ${minNodeVersion}. Read our version support policy: https://github.com/yargs/yargs#supported-nodejs-versions`)

I've started throwing on unsupported versions of Node.js, otherwise folks can get bit somewhere down the road, e.g., when we pull in a feature like async generators, which aren't supported in Node 8.
