failed installation exits with 0

[anton-yurchenko]

Hey,
The errors are suppressed, so in case there is a missing dependency for the installation, npm install dtrace-provider exits with code 0 and allows to continue.
If used in CI pipe, it might create broken artifacts if not tested properly.

Here is an installation log on docker image node:10-alpine:

/opt/app # npm install dtrace-provider

> dtrace-provider@0.8.7 install /opt/app/node_modules/dtrace-provider

Following suppress-error.js and setting environmental variable: export NODE_DTRACE_PROVIDER_REQUIRE="hard" does not solves the issue

Setting environmental variable: export NODE_DTRACE_PROVIDER_REQUIRE="hard" does not solves the issue

I suspect that's because bunyan has dtrace-provider listed an an optionalDependency, so the exit code of node-gyp rebuild || node suppress-error.js is always ignored by npm.

This is still an issue. I get this error, too.
