There is a bug in fakeroot on macOS where it doesn't correctly set the owner/group of files, including chrome-sandbox. This behavior prevents the Electron app from starting. The fix is to force all of the files to be owned by root via a dpkg flag. It's only in dpkg >= 1.19.0, but Homebrew has 1.20.9 as of the creation of this PR, so I'm gating the addition of the flag based on the host platform, just to avoid bug reports from users who insist on using extremely old Linux distributions.

Related: since we support using it on macOS, we should run the tests on it too.

Unrelated: I replaced .npmignore with a files array in package.json.

I'll need to update the required checks after this is merged.

I'd rather deal with that in the Node 10 PR.
