Introduce NODE_ADDON_API_REQUIRE_BASIC_FINALIZERS preprocessor directive, which adds an always-fail static assertion inside the Wrapper definition (responsible for passing the user's non-basic finalizer through a node_api_post_finalizer call) if this preprocessor directive is defined.

When trying to use a non-basic finalizer with this directive defined, you'll get an error like:

../../../../../napi-inl.h:252:5: error: static assertion failed: NODE_ADDON_API_REQUIRE_BASIC_FINALIZERS defined: Finalizer must be basic.
    static_assert(false,
    ^             ~~~~~

(error taken from the test created in this PR)

Let's make this passive voice: The NODE_ADDON_API_REQUIRE_BASIC_FINALIZERS preprocessor directive can be defined to ensure that all finalizers are basic.
