Enforce minimum npm and node version

[anders-kiaer]

The comitted ./react/package-lock.json is switching between lockFileVersion 1 and 2 (depending on which PR author the commits come from).

We should as a project stick to one version. Since lockFileVersion 2 has been around since npm == 7 (node 16) it should be safe to require this version.

Something is not perfect with the current commited lock file in master (dependabot complains about not being able to read it). Hopefully this PR fixes that.

Note that an unmaintained devDependency needs to be removed in order to create a consistent package.json file, see #972.

Closes #877 and closes #640.

Thanks @anders-kiaer this was much needed

It breaks storybook, defining host in storybook script works ("storybook": "start-storybook -p 6006 -h localhost")

Works with node version 16

Perhaps I should also remove --ignore-scripts from README.md and CI commands (now that we enforce it through .npmrc). Thoughts?
