   ### Platforms affected
   
   All
   
   ### What does this PR do?
   
   - Mark 4.2.4-dev in package.json
   - Update appveyor.yml & .travis.yml to use npm@5 as a QUICK FIX WORKAROUND for Node.js 4
   
   NOTES:
   - It is **not** acceptable to drop Node.js 4 before next major release.
   - Use of non-master branch in cordova-js seems to cause some problems with cordova-coho. I hope to investigate and resolve this one in the near future. Until then I would like to avoid the need for non-master branch for patches, which implies:
      - avoid major version bump inn this repo unless absolutely necessary
      - need to maintain Node.js support until we resolve the issue with cordova-coho
   
   ### What testing has been done on this change?
   
   These changes were originally part of WIP PR #151 which passes CI, will check CI results of this PR.
