build: build opt to set local location of headers

Some linux distroes install headers through their
package managers. When headers are locally installed
we'd like them to be used.

Add a build time configuration option
--use-prefix-to-find-headers that will will suggest to
node-gyp to look for headers based on the prefix

A PR to node-gyp will use this value when building
addons to automatially find and use the headers
if they have been installed locally
