Updating node-abi dependency to make electron-rebuild work with electron 15.x properly

See original GitHub issue

As of right now, electron-rebuild builds for a wrong node version for me

Error: The module 'app/node_modules/better-sqlite3/build/Release/better_sqlite3.node'
was compiled against a different Node.js version using
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 89. This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 98. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
the module (for instance, using `npm rebuild` or `npm install`).

because https://github.com/electron/electron-rebuild/blob/master/src/rebuild.ts#L124 gets the abi number from node-abi 3.0.0, whereas 3.2.0 has support for electron 15.x

Workaround for me right now is to add

"resolutions": {  "**/node-abi": "^3.2.0" }

to the package.json, which is working and proves the case, but is dirty long-term.
