Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I need to dectect the libc version and type on Linux systems to determined which native addon I need to load.

The most common ways in Node.js to do such things is using the detect-libc package, which is actully invoke shell scripts and try to read messages in the stdout, not elegant at all.

The other way is using try ... catch on Linux:

try {
  return require('my-native-addon.x64-linux-gnu.node')
} catch {
  return require('my-native-addon.x64-linux-musl.node')
}

not elegant either and more complicated.

Describe the solution you'd like

I want get libc information on process.versions directly, like:

console.log(process.versions.libc)

{
  family: 'glibc',
  version: '2.24'
}

For the other systems don't need to consider about libc problem, just leave the fields as null.
