General changes

Major: Node.js 0.10.x and 0.12.x support is dropped
Major: require('node-fetch/lib/response') etc. is now unsupported; use require('node-fetch').Response or ES6 module imports
Enhance: start testing on Node.js v4.x, v6.x, v8.x LTS, as well as v9.x stable
Enhance: use Rollup to produce a distributed bundle (less memory overhead and faster startup)
Enhance: make Object.prototype.toString() on Headers, Requests, and Responses return correct class strings
Other: rewrite in ES2015 using Babel

HTTP requests

Fix: errors in a response are caught before the body is accessed
Fix: support WHATWG URL objects, created by whatwg-url package or require('url').URL in Node.js 7+

Response and Request classes

Major: response.text() no longer attempts to detect encoding, instead always opting for UTF-8 (per spec); use response.textConverted() for the v1 behavior
Major: make response.json() throw error instead of returning an empty object on 204 no-content respose (per spec; reverts behavior changed in v1.6.2)
Major: internal methods are no longer exposed
