Browser dependencies when skipBrowser is enabled will still download.

Firstly, when skipBrowsers is enabled, the browser dependencies still need to be installed. Second, "phantomjs" is downloaded by "karma-detect-browsers" even though it's not used (even when browser tasks are enabled).

Phantom JS is disabled in our options, but it still downloads. Is there a way that we can remove this dependency, maybe with npm shrinkwrap?

> node install.js

Yes... This is really annoying.

Perhaps there is an option we can use to configure the dependency: litixsoft/karma-detect-browsers#5
