Update to node@12
What does this MR do?
This updates our build images to use node@12. We are also adding a sentence to the from-source installation that while we require a minimum version of node@8, we also recommend node@12. Last but not least, we change the version of node in the .nvmrc so that developers using nvm can automatically use node@12 with the project
