npm install doesn't work in node 12

[kerspoon]

If you try to install with node 12 you get a lot of errors like:

~\chalktalk\server\node_modules\bufferutil\src\bufferutil.cc(25): error C2039: 'Handle': is not a member of 'v8'

Seems to be utf-8-validate and bufferutil causing the problem.

Looks like a similar error to nodejs/node-gyp#1804 (comment)

Might be worth upgrading these packages or just putting a note in the install page on the wiki.

>npm --version
6.9.0

>node --version
v12.0.0

I got it running on windows, I used nodist (https://github.com/nullivex/nodist) to install version 10 nodist global 10.x made sure the npm version matched nodist npm global match deleted the node_modules folder, then ran npm install .

$ node --version
v10.20.1

$ npm --version
6.14.4

I still get dozens of warnings and one error (error below)
