In closed environments, self-signed or privately signed certificates are
commonly used, and rejected by Node.js since their root CAs are not
well-known. Allow extending the set of well-known compiled-in CAs via
environment, so they can be set as a matter of policy.

Add the `--preserve-symlinks` flag. This makes the changes added
in #5950 conditional. By default the old behavior is used. With
the flag set, symlinks are preserved, switching to the new
behavior. This should be considered to be a temporary solution
until we figure out how to solve the symlinked peer dependency
problem in a more general way that does not break everything
else.
Additional test cases are included.
