The nativescript-app-sync is not compatible with Sidekick iOS cloud build

[miiihi]

To recreate:

1. add the nativescript-app-sync to the project (with tns plugin add nativescript-app-sync
2. start a cloud iOS build in Sidekick.
3. the build fails on npm install...

The error looks the same as described here ProgressNS/sidekick-feedback#288, nativescript-app-sync's postinstall hook is trying to install something into '/usr/local/lib/node_modules', which it is not allowed...

Detailed sidekick log available here https://gist.github.com/miiihi/3967f3ced0210a1d7297fbfebc7e4016

I think it's this part of the postinstall script: npm i -g nativescript-app-sync-cli.

Can you give 1.0.4 a spin? I've removed that command as it's already documented in the readme you should run this yourself anyway.

Agree, postinstall hook shouldn't do the global install. Will test soon.

Tested and confirmed as fixed.
And kudos for one of the fastes fixes ever seen! Thanks!
