This PR updates the .gitignore file with a version that is auto-generated by www.gitignore.io.

https://www.gitignore.io/api/osx,node,linux,eclipse,windows,intellij

Hopefully this will help keep custom ignores at a minimum and keep the fuss over things to ignore to a minimum.

I would prefer not track all files relevant to editors and other software in this project. Ideally our .gitignore should get smaller, not larger.

Any custom ignores related to software you use on your own machine should go in your global .gitignore file

This removes the cruft that's grown over time in the .gitignore file with a message about how to create global .gitignore files.

As discussed in #879

I was only trying to flesh out the things that had already been identified. Since you don't think editor specific things are appropriate here (I agree) I was going to suggest removing them but it looks like you did this yourself in master 👏 last night.
