node-pre-gyp support

• binaries will be built on demand for linux and windows
• just bump the version number in package.json (e.g. npm version patch), commit+push, and appveyor and travis will test and deploy new
  prebuilt binaries as needed
• binaries are “maybe built” via a posttest hook for minimal
  duplication in CI configs
• binaries live on S3 behind https://bin.mongodb.org/ (all in the
  devops production environment, fully managed and maintained by them)
  which is fronted by CloudFront (CDN)
• using mongodb-js fork of node-pre-gyp for easier tooling integration

Good to go when this appveyor build finishes for iojs: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/imlucas/bson-ext/build/1.0.34

This change has broken the bson module for me across both Ubuntu and Mac. It was working perfect before in version 0.1.0, but now bson is pulling in the new version 0.1.1 since it is requesting version ~0.1 and the BSON module is now failing with errors across both local Mac envs, and Ubuntu machines I'm working with.

what error are you seeing as I cannot repro

Here is the root issue: https://github.com/christkv/bson-ext/issues/2

It's seems I have this problem related to Automattic/mongoose#2905

[skotchio]

@nathanpeck did you resolve the issue?

[nathanpeck]

Yes, they fixed the issue by releasing a new version of the package that didn't have a precompiled Mac OS X binary inside of it. You should be able to npm cache clean; npm rm -rf node_modules/mongoose; npm install to fix it.

@nathanpeck thanks for the answer
