Mothballing and archiving the node-eps process #335

Description

@jasnell

@nodejs/tsc: For those who are not familiar with the term: mothballing == to stop using (a piece of equipment or a building) but keep it in good condition so that it can readily be used again.

Essentially, the nodejs/node-eps process has not been an overly successful process. The conversations there tend to get lost in the weeds, fail to progress, and attract trolling and bad behavior. The process of just setting up a working fork or working via a PR has been extremely successful in comparison (see URL, http2, n-api, node-chakracore, @bmeck's ESM PR, all for good examples).

The nodejs/node-eps approach never really got the love it needed from the TSC/CTC to be successful. I'm proposing that we archive the repo and no longer push it as a recommended process.
