Node JS compatibility

This SDK is intended to be used in a browser. To use tinode-sdk in Node JS environment (such as on a server), you have to polyfill network providers, for example with ws and xmlhttprequest or xhr, as well as indexedDB with something like fake-indexeddb:

  Tinode.setNetworkProviders(require('ws'), require('xmlhttprequest'));
  Tinode.setDatabaseProvider(require('fake-indexeddb'));
  this.tinode = new Tinode(...);

URL.createObjectURL() and related methods were added in Node v16.7.0. The SDK is unlikely to work correctly with earlier versions of Node.
