This updates the 4.4 branch to support the latest LTS version of NodeJS (currently 14.x), allowing the same version to be used across all WordPress branches that receive security updates as a courtesy.
Because older branches use (really) old versions of NodeJS, the local Docker environment cannot be backported since the needed dependencies will not run on these older versions (see #48301). This also blocks the ability to move automated testing over to GitHub Actions (see #50401).
This also replaces the `npm-shrinkwrap.json` with a `package-lock.json` file. Lock files were not supported in earlier versions of NPM, but can now be used.
In addition to backporting the package updates that happened after branching 4.4, dependencies that were removed in future releases have also been updated to their latest versions.

When the browser test for diversity emoji was added in [36160], it included a workaround for Chrome not being able to compare Uint8ClampedArray objects directly, by converting them to a string. Unfortunately, Safari doesn't support the Uint8ClampedArray.toString() method correctly, so the test was incorrectly failing in Safari.
Merge of [37028] to the 4.4 branch.
Fixes#36266.
