  2. deps: make node-gyp work with io.js 

    Every npm version bump requires a few patches to be floated on
node-gyp for io.js compatibility. These patches are found in
03d1992,
5de334c, and
da730c7. This commit squashes
them into a single commit.

  3. win,node-gyp: optionally allow node.exe/iojs.exe to be renamed 

    On Windows, when node or io.js attempts to dynamically load a compiled
addon, the compiled addon tries to load node.exe or iojs.exe again -
depending on which import library the module used when it was linked.
This causes many compiled addons to break when node.exe or iojs.exe are
renamed, because when the binary has been renamed the addon DLL can't
find the (right) .exe file to load its imports from.

This patch gives compiled addon developers an option to overcome this
restriction by compiling a delay-load hook into their binary. The
delay-load hook ensures that whenever a module tries to load imports
from node.exe/iojs.exe, it'll just look at the process image, thereby
making the addon work regardless of what name the node/iojs binary has.

To enable this feature, the addon developer must set the
'win_delay_load_hook' option to 'true' in their binding.gyp file, like
this:

```
{
  'targets': [
    {
      'target_name': 'ernie',
      'win_delay_load_hook': 'true',
      ...
```
