Napi::Symbol::New(napi_env env, Napi::String description);
Napi::Symbol::New(napi_env env, napi_value description);

• [in] env: The napi_env environment in which to construct the Napi::Symbol object.
• [in] value: The C++ primitive which represents the description hint for the Napi::Symbol. description may be any of:
