[FEATURE REQUEST] Provide prebuilt binaries for each target triples

[5d-jh]

What
Provide librdkafka and its bindings as binary on release assets. Like swc-project.

Why
To speed up postinstall operation and avoid tackle with compilation errors/warnings.

How
When merged into master branch, compile native code and publish onto releases page.

Add postinstall script to download binary for suitable platform, using prebuild-install cli.

[jsumners-nr]

It'd be better to use prebuildify. A post install script to download binaries from a web site is not a great experience.

See newrelic/node-native-metrics#238 for one such conversion.

When building multi platform docker images this would make things so much faster as generally you'll have to deal with some evel of emulation and builds take forever when building over emulation (10m+ on M1 Max for amd64)

Thank you so much! Having the not having prebuilt binaries was a major pain point and this library makes all that go away, don't even need to install any -dev libs.
