Bumps express from 2.5.11 to 4.16.2. This update includes security fixes.

Vulnerabilities fixed

Sourced from The Node Security Working Group.

No Charset in Content-Type Header
Vulnerable versions of express do not specify a charset field in the content-type header while displaying 400 level response messages. The lack of enforcing user's browser to set correct charset, could be leveraged by an attacker to perform a cross-site scripting attack, using non-standard encodings, like UTF-7.

Affected versions: <3.11 || >= 4 <4.5
