[Snyk] Fix for 37 vulnerable dependency paths

[snyk-bot]

This pull request fixes one or more vulnerable packages in the npm dependencies of this project. See the Snyk test report for this project for details.

The PR includes:

• Changes to package.json to upgrade the vulnerable dependencies to a fixed version.
• package.json scripts and a Snyk policy (.snyk) file, which patch the vulnerabilities that can't be upgraded away and ignore vulnerabilities with no fixes.

Vulnerabilities that will be fixed

With an upgrade:

• npm:request:20160119
• npm:request:20160119
• npm:request:20160119

With a Snyk patch:

• npm:minimatch:20160620
• npm:qs:20140806-1
• npm:request:20160119
• npm:semver:20150403
• npm:tar:20151103

Note that some vulnerabilities couldn’t be fully fixed and weren’t explicitly ignored, and so will still fail the Snyk test report.

You can read more about Snyk's upgrade and patch logic in Snyk's documentation.
