Support requiring specific versions of an npm package

See original GitHub issue

Currenty, I can require() an npm package within a code step, but I cannot specify the version of the package I’d like to use. I’d like support for this.

Unfortunately, this issue is the dealbreaker with Pipedream for us also. We can not rely on workflows that can stop working any day.

This is really an important issue. If I we have many workflows running for our clients, we cannot afford having npm package updates breaking our code. The change to a newer version has to be tested properly. At the moment it comes as a possibly negative surprise.

I hope you can soon add this basic functionality of node via something like a package.json.
