Root cause: electron-builder's @electron/rebuild only rebuilds native
modules found in the `files` config. Since better-sqlite3 enters the
app through extraResources (via .next/standalone/), it was skipped.
The afterPack hook was copying the system Node.js ABI (127) instead
of the required Electron ABI (143).
Fix:
- afterPack now explicitly calls `npx electron-rebuild` targeting the
exact Electron version and architecture from the build context
- Falls back to @electron/rebuild programmatic API if CLI fails
- Fails the build if rebuild cannot complete (no silent failures)
- Adds file size logging for verification
- Excludes `release/` from extraResources to prevent recursive nesting
- Adds startup ABI compatibility check in Electron main process with
friendly error dialog instead of cryptic crash
