Electron ASAR archive file access error

ASAR.*not found|Cannot read.*asar|ENOTDIR.*\.asar

Fixes

1.Use path.join(process.resourcesPath, ...) for files outside the ASAR
2.Add files to asarUnpack in electron-builder config for native access
3.Don't use fs.existsSync on asar paths — use electron's asar-aware fs
