TypeScript type definitions cannot be downloaded.

TypeScript type definition packages are available on npm under the scope @types/. For example npm install @types/node. These packages are not correctly extracted when using gradle clientInstall.
In a normal npm package, the files are stored under the package directory:
$ tar -tf example-package.tgz
package/package.json
package/index.js
package/license
package/readme.md
But in @types packages, it seems they use different folder names:
$ tar -tf node-7.0.4.tgz
node/README.md
node/index.d.ts
node/package.json
node/types-metadata.json
$ tar -tf react-15.0.6.tgz
react/README.md
react/index.d.ts
react/package.json
react/types-metadata.json
To solve this, NpmUtil.extractTarball needs to not be hardcoded to package/ but look for a single top-level folder with any name.
