Two hours ago I was creating a new Windows VM to get some work done and to
my surprise, npm install was not working anymore.

If you try, you'll get an error similar to this one:
https://pastebin.com/0Ghe33Xz

After investigating the problem, looks like ref-napi (which is a dependency
of ffi-napi) depends on node-addon-api, which an hour ago received an
update which is causing this build failure on our side.

The maintainers of ref-napi are already aware of it since they have a bot
that takes care of keeping track of changes in its dependencies (
https://github.com/node-ffi-napi/ref-napi/issues/10#issuecomment-514264471)

As a workaround, we can add [email protected] to our dependency list so
ref-napi will be happy with such version and won't pull 1.7.0 (the
offending one). I haven't tested this from gpii-app, but I guess that the
same workaround should work.

I'll keep an eye on this and see if they manage to deal with the situation
shortly. If not, I'll submit a PR tomorrow that allow us to keep going
until the problem is fixed upstream.

Cheers,
Javi
