chore: don't remove optional dependencies in clean-shrinkwrap.js (#1551)

If we include a platform specific optional dependency in the shrinkwrap
file, then npm will insist in installing it even if the platform doesn't
match. As a solution, we figured out we can avoid putting this platform
specific optional dependencies in the npm-shrinkwrap.json file.

In order to do this, we currently have a script called
`clean-shrinkwrap.js` that runs *before* any `npm shrinkwrap` file (its
a `preshrinkwrap` npm script) that deletes all the platform specific
modules we know about using `npm rm`.

The problem with this approach is that `npm rm` will remove the module's
code from `node_modules`, which means that if we run `npm shrinkwrap`,
we will lose certain optional dependencies, that may be needed at a
later stage.

The solution is to modify the `clean-shrinkwrap.js` script to parse
`npm-shrinkwrap.json`, and manually delete the entries that we want to
omit. Also, the script needs to be run *after* `npm shrinkwrap`, so we
change the npm script name to `postshrinkwrap`.
