While Node.js 4 support was dropped from Cordova 9, Node.js 4 should still be supported in patch and minor update of Cordova 8.

P.S. This issue was discovered while investigating issues reported in #337 and #338.

I think AppVeyor CI and Travis CI should have caught this one. This needs to be checked by AppVeyor CI and Travis CI in the future.

Should the title of this issue start with cordova@8.1.0 ... instead of npm@8.1.0 ...?

FYI: This is causing plugin CI tests to fail. Example: #339

This issue should be resolved in version 8.1.1, closing.
