Using NPM 7+ currently causes a number of issues. In order to improve developer experience, we should prevent a developer from going down the road of using incompatible engines. See also: WordPress/gutenberg#29204 and WordPress/gutenberg#23600. Props rcorrales. Fixes #56547. git-svn-id: https://develop.svn.wordpress.org/trunk@54124 602fd350-edb4-49c9-b593-d223f7449a82
