## Summary

- Convert `prepare` hook to a (not-equivalent) `prepublishOnly`, reducing the number of times unit tests are run in `prepare`-literate builds by 1.

https://github.com/optimizely/javascript-sdk/pull/129 introduced a regression where unit tests stopped being run for Node.js v4 and v6. Prior to that PR, unit tests were run
- v4 and v6: once
- v8, v9, v10, ... (versions whose npm understands the `prepare` hook): twice

After that PR was merged, the number of times unit tests were run in each build went down by 1, _for every build_. That means v4 and v6 stopped running unit tests altogether.

With this, Node.js 8+ builds resumed running unit tests twice ([example](https://travis-ci.org/optimizely/javascript-sdk/jobs/399704185)).

Regarding the `prepare` hook: npm@4 added the [`prepare`](https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/scripts#prepublish-and-prepare) hook with that fires on prepublish and postinstall. This is strange. Why run tests when someone installs the package? They see the mocha output in their shell, which is likely to surprise.

This PR stops the unconventional test runs on postinstall.
