[DO NOT MERGE] feat: run node 16 on device

[achou11]

Closes #1100

Notes:

• there's a dev experience regression described in https://github.com/nodejs-mobile/nodejs-mobile-react-native/issues/45 that should be fixable, but not entirely sure what the fix is just yet
  • we do have the option to patch the dep to remove the steps in question, since they don't apply to us right now
• in order to upgrade, we need to drop the x86 architecture entirely (for now). nodejs-mobile v16.17.0 dropped support for this, although it may reintroduce it later. according to our download statistics, not many devices using mapeo have this architecture (~7 active installations as of this week) but this is a notable change that's being introduced, so should be approached carefully.

  • https://github.com/nodejs-mobile/nodejs-mobile/blob/main/doc_mobile/CHANGELOG.md#2023-01-26-version-16170
  • there's a small amount of app code that would be affected by this (p2p app updater). do we need to update the app code to account for this change? (given that we had to disable p2p app updater for now, maybe it's okay not to?)
• this PR also enforces upgrading the dev node version to v16.17. however, by default installing that version comes with npm v8, which does not work well with nodejs-mobile-react-native and our project due to issues introduced in npm v7+. basically, this updated nmrn version attempts to workaround the npm issue but it specifically doesn't work for better-sqlite3 because of the way that project is structured (additional context here). as a result, we upgrade to node 16 but developers need to explicitly use npm v6 for now.

  • https://github.com/digidem/react-native-with-mapeo-core-next/issues/2
• This upgrade requires upgrading to NDK 24.0.8215888.
• ~Due to the NDK version being upgraded, we need to update the docker image we use for Cirrus CI. work-in-progress PR is here: https://github.com/digidem/docker-android/pull/3. Ideally we'd update the docker image and make sure this PR successfully runs on Cirrus before merging it~ UPDATE: done and updated this PR - looks like it worked!

looks like backend tests are failing due to upgrading Node version from 12 to 16. seems to be related to different streams behavior.

1. for one of the beforeAfterStream tests, this test is failing:

https://github.com/digidem/mapeo-mobile/blob/95beddfef3e71ca3522f1fd2b6b87dcd53678e3d/src/backend/test/utils/beforeAfterStream.test.js#L344

seems like the main reason is the result of this line:

https://github.com/digidem/mapeo-mobile/blob/95beddfef3e71ca3522f1fd2b6b87dcd53678e3d/src/backend/upgrade-manager/utils.js#L361

In node 12, ok is true but in node 16, ok is false. seems like 16 actually has the behavior I would expect for this test's case.

2. a couple of the upgrade-storage tests are failing:

https://github.com/digidem/mapeo-mobile/blob/95beddfef3e71ca3522f1fd2b6b87dcd53678e3d/src/backend/test/upgrade-storage.test.js#L193

https://github.com/digidem/mapeo-mobile/blob/95beddfef3e71ca3522f1fd2b6b87dcd53678e3d/src/backend/test/upgrade-storage.test.js#L261

I'm noticing that this listener in beforeAfterStream is not being triggered as expected in node 16, causing the tests to fail I guess:

https://github.com/digidem/mapeo-mobile/blob/95beddfef3e71ca3522f1fd2b6b87dcd53678e3d/src/backend/upgrade-manager/utils.js#L341

---

In both cases, I'm able to add a couple of lines to fix them, but they're very uninformed and while all of the backend tests pass as a result (locally), I still lack confidence.

Created a branch with these "fixes": https://github.com/digidem/mapeo-mobile/compare/1100/upgrade-nodejs-mobile-rn...ac/node-16-upgrade-backend-tests
