Remove dependency on core-js

See original GitHub issue

This is not something you should do for the user of your library, ever.

It’s my job to provide your lib an environment it can run in, it’s not the job of an image library to go messing with it.

Let me worry about polyfilling stuff or not polyfilling stuff. Now I have to ship core-js just to get jimp working.

Maybe have a @jimp/polyfills repo if you want to provide auto-polyfilling.

Expected Behavior

No dependency on core-js.

Current Behavior

Jimp crashes without core-js.

Failure Information (for bugs)

Error: Cannot find module 'core-js/modules/es6.object.define-property'

Steps to Reproduce

Use jimp.

Context

My application uses jimp.

Jimp Version: 0.6.4
Operating System: Any
Node version: v12.7.0

Failure Logs

As far as core-js now prints a lot of spam messages through its postinstall script being a typical donationware, it is now even more reasonable to remove dependency on it: https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/issues/548

If you are using jimp for Node.js (not browser) you may try jimp-compact a repackaged version which is much smaller and also hasn’t a dependency on jimp.

NOTE: This is NOT an official solution.
