Description of the Change
This enables the possibility of multithreading in Atom as stated in Electron documentation. It allows using Node features in WebWorkers.
https://www.electronjs.org/docs/tutorial/multithreading
This allows offloading the parts of the code that are blocking the main thread to another thread, which can result in a huge performance gain.
