Use Node-API instead of @mapbox/node-pre-gyp?

[ehassaan]

Is there any plan to move away from node-pre-gyp and use a simpler solution like Node-API, prebuild, node-gyp-build etc?

1. Needs unnecessary dependencies for runtime ("aws-sdk", "mock-aws-s3", "nock") #661.

2. Issues with build tools like rollup and webpack
   Compatibility with bundling tools like webpack and rollup mapbox/node-pre-gyp#308 (comment)

3. Unmaintained for 2 years, a lot of open issues to be addressed #657

I am happy to contribute if there is interest in implementing this.
