Subject: [PATCH] Specify npm 11.* in engines to suppress version upgrade
 notices

Without an explicit npm version in engines, Heroku uses a default that
lags behind the latest release. This causes npm to print "New minor
version of npm available!" notices during every build, cluttering the
getting started tutorial output.
