Update electron single instance API

[dbkr]

Electron sez:

'app.makeSingleInstance(cb)' is deprecated. Use 'app.requestSingleInstanceLock() and app.on('second-instance', cb)' instead.

I swear I did this somewhere, it's probs lost in a feature branch somewhere

Does this make it so you can only start one Riot at a time? Presumably it's already true that one can only reliably run one riot at a time?

[lampholder]

Btw @dbkr feel free to prioritise this one 'cause I've not got a clue :P

[t3chguy]

It is already the case, just the api to do so is changing. When you try and launch a new riot it just opens the minimised one

[dbkr]

Yeah, it's not important, until Electron remove the API, at which point it will suddenly become important. :)

I'm still having this issue and it prevents riot-web from starting on my system.

@Kattihatt that sounds unlikely, deprecation warnings are exactly that, warnings, they do not affect the operation of the software. More likely is something else is going wrong, describe your symptoms in more detail.
