I've tried to install `node-inspector` using Node 8 and it looks like it is not supported. According to the [documentation of that tool](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-inspector): > Since version 6.3, Node.js provides a built-in DevTools-based debugger which mostly deprecates Node Inspector (...). The built-in debugger (...) provides certain advanced features (...) that are too difficult to implement in Node Inspector. As [we require nodejs >= 6.9.0](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite#requirements), and as [`node-inspector` only works on Chrome and Opera](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-inspector#debug), it looks like a good approach to remove the dependency of that tool and use Chrome DevTools directly. Besides, [there are other tools available](https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides/debugging-getting-started/#inspector-clients) for debugging, if Chrome is not an option. This PR also allow external connections to the inspector, so Etherpad instances running on containers can also be debugged. [There are obviously some risks to leave that opened on public IPs](https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides/debugging-getting-started/#exposing-the-debug-port-publicly-is-unsafe), but I assumed no instance would run on debug mode for the final user.
