N-API port

[gabrielschulhof]

Would it be possible to port this module to N-API? N-API is available for Node.js versions 4-master via https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-api. Porting to N-API would relieve the burden of having to rebuild the module for every Node.js major release, because an addon built with node-addon-api will work with the version of Node.js against which it was compiled as well as all future versions of Node.js without recompilation. The syntax of node-addon-api is very similar to NAN which should make porting easy.

Hi @gabrielschulhof

Yes, I would be willing to do this, I've been waiting for the N-API to become stable and proven, and it looks like now is the time.

The N-API looks fairly easy to use, but do you have any reference examples that would help someone get started?

Thanks

Steve

Hi @stephenwvickers, thank you for this module! Did you take a look at #75? Is there something else to do before merging it?
