gl is a pain in the ass to install #9

Description

@insanity54

Every time I install clipzip, or change node versions, it takes me about an hour to figure out how to get gl installed.

my normal package manager is yarn, but gl forces me to use npm which often hangs.

Sometimes, this fixes the issue

npm rebuild --build-from-source gl

Another possible fix is

cd ./node_modules/gl
node-gyp rebuild --verbose

There is no solution that fixes the issue every time. This is super annoying and wastes time. I want to find some way around this problem, be it a script to smooth out the install, or a separate editing package that doesn't depend on gl.

Also I'm stuck on node 14 because I haven't been able to get clipzip dependencies to work on anything newer.
