Problem from outdated node-gyp

[crystalfp]

Seems electron-builder, through @electron/rebuild installs node-gyp version v10.2.0-electron.1 and this version fails to build native node modules with error
/LTCG:INCREMENTAL: no such file or directory. See electron/electron#47613 for the complete problem. No problems with the globally installed latest version of node-gyp (11.4.2).

Seems the solution is to update the @electron/rebuild package from the current version 3.7.0 to 4.0.1. This package is a dependency of app-builder-lib used by electron-builder.

Could you update these dependencies so to update at the end the node-gyp package? Thanks!

Can definitely revisit upgrading @electron/rebuild, the downside is that rebuild is an ESM-only package in v4 IIRC. So that means electron-builder needs to perform a backward-incompatible migration to ESM as well to leverage it.

It seems this may be inevitable; I was trying to close out as many bugs as possible before that breaking change though

#9277 seems like it will be a blocker.

I don't think this is true but I'm not sure.
