n-api: add helper for addons to get the event loop
Add a utility functions for addons to use when they need a reference to the current event loop. While the libuv API is not directly part of N-API, it provides a quite stable C API as well, and is tightly integrated with Node itself. As a particular use case, without access to the event loop it is hard to do something interesting from inside a N-API finalizer function, since calls into JS and therefore virtually all other N-API functions are not allowed.
