eos name in string to uint64 and vice versa

Eosio name to uint64

npm i eosjs-account-name

yarn add eosjs-account-name

From name to uint64

Here is [how eosio account name is computed to uint64] (https://github.com/EOSIO/eos/blob/master/libraries/chain/include/eosio/chain/name.hpp#L21), I think node developer should have this function too :).

main.cpp show how sample values are created.

"eosio",
"eosio.msig",
"eosio.token",
