nodejs 'make install'ed headers are ignored

node’s build process installs headers in {prefix}/include/node when running make install, but node-gyp install does download its own copy almost the same. One of them is just an useless extra.

And ./configured headers are better tailored for the local environment usually.

https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/ section 17.19.6.2.5. Pitfalls contains a workaround.
