In order to take advantage of updates and security fixes in electron, we should upgrade to the latest version of 2.x.x (currently 2.0.14).

This would target the following sub-product versions:

  • Node 8.2.1 > 8.9.3
  • Chrome 59 > 61
  • V8 5.6 > 6.1

We should also update the minimum node version used by Theia to match the above (>=8.2.1).

According to node.green this update wouldn't bring any new ES2015 language features, but does bring others.

ES2015 Array.Values() would still remain unsupported, so should continue to be avoided in Theia.
