Juan Cruz Viotti d9822faf2f fix(GUI): emit progress back to parent using node-ipc (#774) ...

This PR makes use of `node-ipc` to emit progress information from the
child CLI to the GUI process rather than the tailing approach we've
been doing until now.

This change was motivated by the following Electron fix which landed in
v1.4.4: https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/7578. Before such fix,
Electron would not output anything to stdout/stderr if the Electron
process was running with `ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE` under Windows, which
forced us to implement `--log` option in the Etcher CLI to output state
information to a file.

Since this issue is fixed, we can consume the Etcher CLI output from
within `child_process.spawn`, which opens more interesting possibilities
for sharing information between both processes.

This coindentally fixes a Windows issue where the tailing module would
receive malformed JSON, causing Etcher to crash at `JSON.parse`. The
reason of this problem was a bug in the tailing module we were using.

Fixes: https://github.com/resin-io/etcher/issues/642
Change-Type: patch
Changelog-Entry: Fix "Unexpected end of JSON" error in Windows.
