Should fix #319
This change put a hard constraint on Node version number : npm should prevent users from installing if node version is under v11 which is the first version that has TextEncoder in the global object like in the browser.
Changes in package.json set the node version constraint in the engines entry.
The engine-strict directive in the added .npmrc file should tell npm to enforce the constraint at npm install time.
I modified documentation accordingly.
Alternatively, we could just limit the constraint to a warning in the documentation and let users install at their own risk.

The netlify checks are failing now, saying the node version is too old.

E.g. from https://app.netlify.com/sites/dcmjs/deploys/634281592ae0f90008b99d5c :

Looks like @dannyrb removed the pinned version but perhaps we need to add it back now: 3e2978b
