Any chance of moving to js-sha3?

[daviddias]

Currently, this module brings in a Native dep sha3@1.2.0. Would it be possible to move to js-sha3, the same used in js-multihashing-async, so that it doesn't represent a blocker for js-ipfs electron users

Thanks!

@diasdavid This is set up so that you get the js implementation when targeting the browser, and c++ on node (with failover to js). So is there some error with the failover when targeting electron?

echo "Keccak bindings compilation fail. Pure JS implementation will be used."

I'm still investigating, but as far as I understand electron-rebuild is not super friendly to deps in Node.js that fail. It doesn't work well with the failover.
