This updates the 4.9 branch to support the latest LTS version of NodeJS (currently 14.x), allowing the same version to be used across all WordPress branches that receive security updates as a courtesy.
This also replaces the `npm-shrinkwrap.json` with a `package-lock.json` file. Lock files were not supported in earlier versions of NPM, but can now be used.
In addition to backporting the package updates that happened after branching 4.9, dependencies that were removed in future releases have also been updated to their latest versions.

Patches occasionally come in on generated files. We should be kind to new contributors and give them a hint that these files are auto generated.

WordPress no longer supports many old old browsers: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/04/23/target-browser-coverage/
This also removes alot of no longer necessary CSS. It served us well, but we are never getting back together with IE8,9,10.
So, in the (paraphrased) words of Taylor Swift:
I remember when we dropped support the first time
Saying, "This is it, I've had enough, " 'cause like
We hadn't seen many users in a month
When you said you needed flexbox. (What?)
Then you postMessage again and say
"IE8, I miss you and I swear I'm gonna change, trust me."
Remember how that lasted for a day?
I say, "I hate the box model, " we break up, you call me, "I love css-grids."
Ooh, we called it off again last night
But ooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you
We are never ever ever supporting IE 8,9,10,
We are never ever ever supporting IE 8,9,10,
You go talk to EDGE, talk to my FIREFOX, talk to CHROME
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together
Like, ever...

Currently, the "Collapse menu" item is not focusable and keyboard users can't collapse/expand the admin menu. This aims to fix it so that screen readers no longer announce it as a clickable but it remains unfocusable and thus unusable. So it's now a button.
Quoting joedolson at WordCamp Chicago 2014:
"If it's supposed to act like a button, it should be a button."
Also includes a grunt:precommit run that picked up some postcss changes to src/wp-includes/css/customize-preview.css
Fixes#29958.
