BREAKING CHANGE(bin): remove command

Why is this being removed?

[wraithgar]

npm bin currently does not accurately represent everywhere npm looks for a bin when one is asked for. Providing it as a command invites folks to add it to their $PATH which is discouraged: npm should be finding those, not your os. The bin discovery of npm is more than just looking in the one folder, it actually walks up from whatever folder the package is in, looking for a .bin folder in any node_modules it finds. This is how scripts that call npm run can get the version of a given package they asked for, instead of whichever one "wins" by being hoisted.

In global mode, bin is simply where node is.

If the command is going to be removed, it would be great if the algorithm itself was documented.
