switch to prebuild for better binary distribution and electron support #1641
Description
Summary
Currently node-sqlite3 uses node-pre-gyp for building and delivers only node compatible modules.
Proposed implementation
To achieve wider binary distribution and to support electron prebuild binaries, a support for prebuild is desired.
See https://nodejs.github.io/node-addon-examples/build-tools/prebuild/

It would appear prebuild is also effectively unmaintained!
