dependency macaddress has a global leak

[defunctzombie]

They have fixed it (https://github.com/scravy/node-macaddress/commit/67e7f938c3acc90d5950c88b749fd6a15eb401db) but have not released a new version for a long time.

Would be nice to either publish a fork of theirs (if the author isn't going to update) and depend on that until there is an actual update.

Issue asking them to release a new version: https://github.com/scravy/node-macaddress/issues/9

The issue has been fixed https://github.com/scravy/node-macaddress/commits/master 0.2.9 released. Please update the dependency version in this repo. Thanks

The link above doesn't work here's that link https://github.com/scravy/node-macaddress/commits/master, also the 2.9.0 version has not been released to nmjs.com nor tagged 2.9.0 in the repo

https://www.npmjs.com/package/macaddress?activeTab=versions

The macaddress can also be acquired in newer node releases with:

require('os').networkInterfaces()

So dropping support for older node would help here.

And here's the "npm audit" critical issue:

Hi everyone, I removed the macaddress dependency in the new v5.0.0, so this issue should be fixed. And sorry for the late response.

Let me know if there are any other issues.

Thanks, Adam
