electron-redux does not work with electron 10.x yet

[Treverix]

https://github.com/hardchor/electron-redux/blob/253ae990f61addf7fe6ab362f4440bd344e81b35/packages/electron-redux/src/helpers/getInitialStateRenderer.js#L4

This line crashes with electron 10.x

This is because of the planned decommissioning of remote.

As of electron 10, the remote is removed by default. We can get it back (until electron 14) by adding enableRemoteModule=true to the webPreferences:

const w = new BrowserWindow({
  webPreferences: {
    enableRemoteModule: true
  }
})

This is required if we want to use this version of electron-redux with electron 10+ (did it on my project and it works again). I recommend adding some info message to the readme :)

@Treverix thanks for pointing at it!

I've updated the readme, does it seem fine to you?

[Treverix]

Looks good :) And one day you'll need to build an electron-redux without using remote.getGlobal and probably using invoke/handle instead of send/on/once (it is my understanding that ipcRenderer.send/sendSync will be removed also when the remove module is dropped)

But there'll be @electron/remote as a new 3rd party (userland?) package if we want to keep using some remote.
