[RRFC] Add feature to suppress minor version changes from update-notifier #859

@FelixVicis

Description

@FelixVicis

There should be a way to suppress minor version update notices. Currently, there is only a on/off solution; but this does not allow for those of us who want major and security updates to receive notices.

Motivation ("The Why")

I want to receive notices about major and security updates to NPM. I don't however need to update for each minor update.

How

Current Behaviour

The current configuration flag is a boolean that determines if an update is checked at all.

Desired Behaviour

Update to the configuration flag from a simple boolean to allow silencing other types of update notices.
