error Found incompatible module.

Desired behavior:

Successful install. Migration docs state that Cypress 5.0 can be installed with Node versions >= 10.

Versions

Cypress 5.0

Node.js's odd number releases reach their end of life after 6 months with Node.js 11's being end of life on June 1, 2019. I suppose we do technically say that we support 10+, I guess it's an assumption in the community that older odd numbered versions are not supported within that.

Our goal is to not support Node.js versions that have reached end of life essentially. I think we'll update the docs to reflect this instead of changing the behavior of Node.js support in the product.

Opened a PR in our docs to be more specific about this cypress-io/cypress-documentation#3108
