The default .npmignore would disallow bin/, which contains binaries for
our NPM release. Every release before v3.0.3 was missing .npmignore, and
therefore had no binaries. These were unusable in NPM, and have been
marked as deprecated because of it.
Closes#1369
This work was done over ~80 individual commits in the `cmake` branch,
which are now being merged back into `main`. As a roll-up commit, it is
too big to be reviewable, but each change was reviewed individually in
context of the `cmake` branch. After this, the `cmake` branch will be
renamed `cmake-porting-history` and preserved.
