Reviewers

We depend on a few packages for compiling JavaScript, namely Babel,
Uglify-JS, and LessCSS. Our dependencies were locked to specific
versions, meaning we weren't benefiting from any bug fixes or security
updates (less of a problem in our case, given that this is purely
compile time of our own media, but still worth avoiding).

We now specify the latest minor release in each series we use, and
specify that newer minor releases are also acceptable. Right now, this
only actually affects babel-cli, babel-preset-es2015, and
uglify-js.

We are not using the latest versions of each, for compatibility on
this branch. Review Board 4.0 upgrades to modern versions.

Built Djblets and Review Board packages successfully. Compared static
media files between the old and new packages, and there were no
substantial changes that I noted (just very slight differences in
minimization that don't affect any actual code).
