electron-rebuild better-sqlite3 deprecation warnings starting with v13.2.0

[MikeMcC399]

Current behavior

Building Cypress from source with yarn results in multiple deprecation and other warnings such as V8_DEPRECATED at the step:

electron-rebuild -o better-sqlite3

This is a regression compared to Cypress v13.1.0.

Desired behavior

The current default branch https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress should install without deprecation and other warnings and produce output similar to

$ electron-rebuild -o better-sqlite3
✔ Rebuild Complete

as was the case in Cypress 13.1.0 before the Electron upgrade from 21.0.0 to 25.8.0 in Cypress 13.2.0.

Test code to reproduce

Prerequisites

npm install yarn@latest -g
sudo apt install g++ make cmake

Execute

git clone https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress
cd cypress

git checkout v13.1.0
n auto # or similar to set node to 16.16.0
yarn # no issue with electron-rebuild -o better-sqlite3

git checkout v13.2.0
n auto # or similar to set node to 18.15.0
yarn # multiple deprecation warnings for electron-rebuild -o better-sqlite3

git checkout develop
n auto # or similar to set node to 18.15.0
git clean -x -d -f
yarn # multiple deprecation warnings also for develop branch

Cypress Version

First reported on version: 13.2.0

better-sqlite3/releases/tag/v8.5.0 mentions "Add support for electron v25 prebuilds". This is the version of Electron bundled with Cypress 13.2.0.
