Code Review
This pull request from Snyk upgrades node-pre-gyp to fix a security vulnerability. However, this is a major version jump that introduces a significant breaking change. The new version requires Node.js v12+, while this package version likely supports older Node.js environments (v4+). This will break compatibility for users on those older versions. Careful consideration is needed before merging, as any fix for this vulnerability appears to require dropping support for older Node.js versions.

This upgrade to node-pre-gyp@~0.17.0 introduces a breaking change by dropping support for older Node.js versions.
- New Requirement:
node-pre-gyp@~0.17.0requires Node.js>= 12. - Old Support: The previous version
~0.6.14supported Node.js>= 0.8. - Project Compatibility: This package version (
3.1.1) usesnan@~2.1.0, which implies support for Node.js v4 and v5.
Merging this PR will break the build for anyone using this package on Node.js versions older than 12.
The security vulnerability is fixed in node-pre-gyp >= 0.11.0, which itself requires Node.js >= 6. This means any fix will be a breaking change for users on Node.js v4/v5. This change should likely be part of a new major version release.
