Implement node_register_module and some V8:: APIs

[Jarred-Sumner]

This is blocking:

• node-canvas
• bcrypt
• better-sqlite3

These (and others like uWebSocket.js) use the V8 APIs instead of the cross-runtime n-api (which bun already implement)

We can probably look at node-jsc to see how to do this.

@Jarred-Sumner @colinhacks would it be possible for @Faire to put a bounty on this? node-canvas is the last holdout for us adopting bun install in our frontend monorepo. bun would save us a lot of time in local dev & CI. #5835 (comment)

(some of our testing deps link node_canvas: mocha, jsdom, jest-environment-jsdom)

node-canvas already has an NAPI port, you just need to build the latest from the git.
Alternatively, you can use https://github.com/Brooooooklyn/canvas, which is faster and has basically the same API.

we don't depend on canvas ourselves. some of our dependencies try to link it during the installation process (mocha, jsdom, jest-environment-jsdom, ...) is there a way to get these dependencies to use the NAPI version?

Any updates when we can expect this to land?

@chriskrogh Yes if you are willing to do some messy postinstall scripting, would be much easier if bun supported some nested overriding but that is also not in the roadmap afaik.

@Jarred-Sumner gentle bump here. seems like both this issue (and related ones #5835) have been racking up reactions. any plans on adding this to bun sometime soon?

node-canvas literally works fine. instead of telling Bun to update, tell those mfs to publish a release, because they haven't done that in forever.
