Karma: Release Karma 1.7.1 with Node 8 support

[alecf]

Now that #2754 is fixed, someone needs to release a new version of karma that has node 8 support specified.

@dignifiedquire Can we get this release for Node 8 support? Thanks.

[dignifiedquire]

we currently have some breaking changes on master which will require some careful testing before I can release them, which I didn't found time for yet sorry

[cletusw]

Okay.

[cletusw]

@dignifiedquire Would you accept a branch with just 1.7.0 and the node 8 commit? That way it could just be released as 1.7.1 without the changes in master.

[cletusw]

@dignifiedquire In case you agree, I've created a 1.x branch on my fork that is simply 1.7.0 plus the node 8 change. If you'd like, you can create that branch in the main repo, run npm version patch, update the changelog, and use npm publish to publish that branch as 1.7.1

Thanks @cletusw that is probably something we can do. I will check it out later today.

@cletusw, you're always one step ahead of me.

[cletusw]

@nicksrandall Lol. As a workaround, you can npm install --force karma and then npm install.

Published from https://github.com/karma-runner/karma/tree/1.7.1 which includes only that change

[cletusw]

Thanks!
