core: Latest type-is release breaks body-parser

So the latest release of type-is package which is used in node-req has a new check in tryNormalizeType function:

if (typeof value !== 'string') {
    return null
}

The release was made today.

Unfortunately, it brakes adonis body parser since body type check stops working and returns false on all types (aka this._isType(request, this.jsonTypes)).

By default node-req tries to get the latest type-is version and hence all the users who made a fresh adonis install in the last few hours wouldn’t be able to get a request body.

I’m not sure whether this issue should be in node-req (by the way. npm page has a wrong github repo link) or in body-parser repo. So I’ll post it here since it is the main adonis repo.

Package version

“@adonisjs/framework”: “^5.0.13”, “@adonisjs/bodyparser”: “^2.0.9”,
