ESLint uses the s (dotAll) flag for regular expressions which isn't supported in Node.js versions earlier than 8.10.0.

I made a similar PR for when the spread operator was introduced in Node.js v8.6.0: #1418

Once this lands, I'll rebase #1495 to make sure we test early Node.js versions in CI.

What changes did you make? (Give an overview)

I changed the minimum Node.js version where standard will run to be 8.10.0 (was 8.6.0).

Which issue (if any) does this pull request address?

closes #1494
closes #1455

Is there anything you'd like reviewers to focus on?

Consider if this is actually a breaking change. If so we need to roll back the version of eslint instead of this. However, I think this be accepted so it's not breaking given the circumstances.

My approach in #1495 doesn't work. Instead, I'll add the minimum version we think we should work on to the .travis.yml file in this PR. We could later consider adding a special test for 8.9.4 as well.

I think that this approach (minimum as indicated by engines.node, and latest of every stable major) is very good 👍

That's how I do it in many of my packages as well :)
