Unable to compile on node v9, which blocks upgrading on Arch Linux

Arch Linux yarn: 1.3.2 node: 9.2.0

---

Please follow exactly these steps (don’t use repo that you had cloned before):

$ git clone https://github.com/KELiON/cerebro.git cerebro
$ cd cerebro
$ yarn
.....
$ cd app
$ yarn

Expected: both yarn runs succeed. Actual: the second yarn fails.

❯ yarn
yarn install v1.3.2

I have v9.2.0, Arch Linux ships the latest available version of all apps, so every Arch Linux user has node v9.2.0 and it’s not something I can change… Let’s fix Cerebro for node v9 🙂
