Do we still need this, now that npm 7.5.3 is out, and #28890 seems to fix the issue with Appium? |

Oh I didn't realised that there's a new NPM version 🎊 . I'll check it out but if it works with the Appium update we don't need this PR. |

Description
Related to #28834, we have a dependency that is producing an error when running
npm installwith NPM version 7. Since this issue is coming from NPM, until a fix is released we could limit the use of NPM to version 6.For this purpose, the PR adds a condition in the engine property of
package.jsonfile to set the version compatibility of NPM below 7.Documentation about the engine parameter: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v6/configuring-npm/package-json#engines
How has this been tested?
Verify that dependencies are installed with NPM version 6
npm install -g npm@6.npm install.Verify that dependencies are not installed and fails with NPM version 7
npm install -g npm@7.npm install.Screenshots
