EventEmitter deprecated

[mariotacke]

This module does not seem to work with latest node (v8.4) since the EventEmitter was deprecated.

Error:

[...]\node_modules\websocket.io\lib\socket.js:49
Socket.prototype.__proto__ = EventEmitter.prototype;
                                         ^

Thanks for reporting.
This is still a workaround and may or may not work depending of package load order.
