Upgrade to protractor 6.x about gulp-protractor HOT 7 OPEN

@EugeneSnihovsky Let me check it today.

from gulp-protractor.

@EugeneSnihovsky I checked and it seems it may break depending on many other things like gulp version, selenium version, etc
So I feel will be better to create a separate branch, to do some tests first.

@rahulmr Thanks for quick response. Maybe it make sense to move protractor dependency to peerDependency? In this case user will be able to choose protractor version by himself. But it will create breaking changes for your module (none protractor version will be installed automatically)

@EugeneSnihovsky If you can try including dependency for gulp-protractor as "gulp-protractor": "mllrsohn/gulp-protractor#protractor-v6", in your package.json file and let me know then it will be good.
About peerDependency, it is possible I guess.
The other thought I have is to put 1 async example with latest gulp 4.0.2 and protractor 6.0.0.
I think that might be helpful.

@rahulmr I spent some time for testing #protractor-v6 and here is results:

1. My compilation prepublish scripts fail with same error as in this issue and seems that it still work in progress.
2. For testing protractor 6.0.0 download selenium-webdriver version that requires Chrome version 76. For now this version is in beta and will be available on July 30

So until July 30 I will use protractor 5x and then check this issue again. Thanks for support and sorry for your lost time :)

@rahulmr Hello! Sorry for long time with no response.

I check today protractor 6x again and I think it is still not stable. It has "selenium-webdriver": "^4.0.0-alpha.1" dependency. And for now it in alpha.4 and requires chrome v.77 that is still not released.
So I think we need to wait for selenium-webdriver: 4.x stable version and then try again
