cluster: add support for NODE_OPTIONS="--inspect"

When using cluster and --inspect as cli argument it is correctly
handled and each worker will use a different port, this was
fixed by #13619. But when env var NODE_OPTIONS="--inspect"
is set this logic doesn't apply and the workers will fail as they
try to attach to the same port.

Fixes: #19026
