.checkEngine(pkg, npmVer, nodeVer, force = false)
Check if node/npm version is supported by the package. If it isn't supported, an error is thrown.

argument will override the node version check, but not the npm version check, as this typically would indicate that the current version of npm is unable to install the package properly for some reason.

.checkPlatform(pkg, force)
Check if OS/Arch is supported by the package.
Error code: 'EBADPLATFORM'
