Node Native Addon (GYP)

[ayushmanchhabra]

Issue Type

• Bug Fix
• Feature
• Other

Current/Missing Behaviour

• User has to manually do this and most probably fails to do so.

Expected/Proposed Behaviour

Let nw-builder handle it:

• Download NW.js's Node specific headers
• Point node-gyp to those headers
• Create a node-gyp rebuild addon
• Test that it runs in NW.js

Additional Info

It should be possible to build native node modules using latest version of node-gyp:
https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#build-for-third-party-nodejs-runtimes. We might be able to simplify the DX by using electron-rebuild's approach.
