nodejs in tools distro should not depend on python

[bahamat]

Chatted with @jperkin, tools could set PYTHON_FOR_BUILD_ONLY=yes

There's also the option of configuring using --without-npm and going with a npm-less package. FreeBSD ports has the node package(s) implemented this way, then provides separate npm packages.

[jperkin]

This is done for 2018Q1 and new packages are available (if already installed then pkg_add -U them).

[bahamat]

So, will this be available if I bootstrapped from 2017Q4-tools?

[jperkin]

I didn't force a rebuild of 2017Q4, I prefer not to do things like that in an LTS release and it's better that users always use the latest, but I can do if necessary.
