The GN build always compiles the bundled copies of brotli, c-ares,
HdrHistogram, llhttp, libuv, nghttp2, SQLite and zstd, so anyone
packaging a GN-built Node.js for a Linux distribution has no
counterpart to configure's --shared-* options.
Add node_shared_* args named after the GYP variables. When one is set,
that dependency's GN template defines its target as a group carrying a
pkg-config config instead of the bundled sources, so every existing
"deps/<name>" reference picks up the system library without further
changes, and config.gypi reports the choice like a GYP build does.
