install.js doesn't appear to run as expected in node@16/npm@7

[skgrush]

We recently upgraded to node 16 and npm 7, and found that the install.js script is no longer running automatically during npm ci/npm install runs on clean node_modules.

Our current workaround is using adding to our own package.json "postinstall": "npm explore cldr-data -- npm run install", which covers us for the time-being.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is just a breaking change in npm 7.

Same here.
