Error about `node-gyp` or `node-pre-gyp` when install about webtorrent-hybrid

[konsumer]

I also have this issue on node v17.6.0

npm i webtorrent-hybrid

Seems like the issue is with wrtc. If I remove that from package.json it installs, and if I try to install it, I get same error:

npm install wrtc

npm ERR! code 1
npm ERR! path /Users/konsumer/Desktop/webtorrent-hybrid/node_modules/wrtc

It's hard to tell, but it looks liek the only place it is used is in global.js:

globalThis.WRTC = wrtc

I will try to make a PR to fix it.

@lanjingyun I made a PR to fix it (see above) and also instructions on the PR for doing it without the webtorrent-hybrid wrapper.

seed example seems to work with above PR,including being able to hit a remote demo-hash on https://instant.io/ (which was not working with regular webtorrent lib, in node.)

I got the same problem，have some ways to fix it？

When I want to install I am facing this problem how can I install it by solving it

[github-actions]

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?

[konsumer]

Bummer. Is this project dead?
