Integrate tcp into Electron
This Electron application is based on the Quick Start Guide within the Electron documentation.
Electron apps use Http and websocket in most situations, while in some particular circumstances, tcp connecting is also required.
Main process of the Electron app has the whole application's event lifecycle in control, and be responsible for creating and managing BrowserWindow. CPU intensive work in main process may block event-loop and lock up all renderer process.
Seperate tcp handlers to a individual process would be better option to avoid bad performace, especially when high frequency buffer operations and encryptions/decryptions happend.
