deps,doc,lib,src,test: add experimental web storage

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/cjihrig/webstorage into main

This commit introduces an experimental implementation of the Web Storage API using SQLite as the backing data store.

A few notes:

  • The StorageEvent class is not yet implemented.
  • The sqlite license seems to be sort of unique. I wasn't sure how it should be added to the license builder.
  • There is no sqlite dependency update script.
  • There are probably opportunities to optimize the database configuration in the future.
  • There are opportunities in the future to make this more configurable (such as a CLI flag to specify the storage location or maximum size).
  • Unsure if storage should be accessible from workers. Web workers cannot access them, but Node's worker threads are not quite web workers.
  • Since the CI is currently locked down, I'm unsure if sqlite builds on every platform Node.js supports.
