Native module builds (node-gyp) expect the tarball to be named "node-…"

Trying to npm i nodegit with my build

Error: 404 response downloading https://unrelentingbuildbot.s3.dualstack.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/ayo/v9.0.0-nightly201708257a10dc574

I have renamed it in my bucket, but this is going to be an issue for everyone potentially.

Should the build process actually produce ayo-… tarballs or node-…? The latter might be potentially confusing, but should all the existing tooling adapt to the existence of ayo? (I guess there might be a lot of tooling and not all of it might be maintained?) How was this handled in io.js?

io.js used iojs as the prefix. https://iojs.org/dist/latest-v3.x/

For ayo.js to get nvm support eventually, it will be important to try to do "what io.js did" in just about every question like this. Picking a prefix (like "ayo") would work fine tho :-)
