Description of Changes

This is the final version of [email protected]! It's pretty much the same as the beta.56 release that was submitted before, but has some bugfixes from the rest of the beta. We went kinda fast so I don't have a concrete list of changes since then, but you can check the new changelog for overall details.

Please note that npm5 is a major update to npm, and is still fairly young. I fully expect users to find all sorts of doozies, even after a month of beta, and even longer of internal testing. We'll be doing tighter release cycles while npm5 stabilizes, though, and update-notifier should help users keep up to date even if new versions take a few more days to land in node@8. This is mostly a general comment about Super Fresh™ software.

I want to thank y'all on the node team for keeping this window open and being communicative with the npm team about your needs/expectations. I feel pretty good about this release even with the deadline having been so tight. 🎉

Note: tomorrow is a company holiday, but I've shifted my day off to Friday so I can be available to help get this release out the door. Please do let me know if you ned anything.

@nodejs/ctc @nodejs/collaborators @nodejs/npm ... we'll need to fast track this to land today in order to make it in to the 8.0.0 release.

Seems good. As a note, more tests are now skipped on my machine:

total ........................................... 4417/4428 4417 passing (9m) 11 pending 

Previously, only one was. (The couchdb one(s) I think.)

The skipped tests are pretty safe. They're just placeholders in @iarna's file specifier tests that haven't been filled in yet.
