Consider removing NodeJS 12 support

[hasezoey]

Remove NodeJS 12 Support because it is EOL

This needs to be done because it is a blocker for many dependency upgrades that require node 14 or higher, like:

• #567
• #652
• #653

Things that would have to be done when removing NodeJS 12 support:

• change tests coverage upload to be from a higher nodejs version
• remove code specific to nodejs 12 (like the recursive deleting code)

---

Personally i would like to keep NodeJS 12 around for as long as it needs to be (it has not caused much burden yet) and should keep the support range about the same as mongoose (because it is a very popular mongodb "driver")

See #691 for a start

like i said in https://github.com/nodkz/mongodb-memory-server/pull/691#issuecomment-1237818108, i think i will put this off for now (note the tile had been changed to "consider"), because some projects i help maintain use this package and still support node 12 (example: typegoose & mongoose)
