Change the build/include_order rule to match our preference:
project headers before system headers.
The rationale is that system headers before project headers makes it
easy to slip in bugs where a project header that requires a definition
from a system header, forgets to include the system header but still
compiles because the source files that include the project header
coincidentally include the system header too.
A good example is the size_t type. A project header file that needs the
definition of size_t should include stddef.h but forgetting to do so
will probably go unnoticed for a long time because almost every other
system header includes stddef.h (either directly or indirectly) and
almost every source file includes one or more system headers.
Ergo, project headers before system headers. It's a good thing.
This change introduces support for the common PREFIX variable in the
Makefile and install.py, instead of having /usr/local hardcoded. This
makes it much easier to install node to custom locations e.g. in a
user's home directory.
The PREFIX variable defaults to /usr/local.
Every constant is certainly 4 bytes now, but freebsd's objdump utility
prints out odd byte sequences (5-bytes, 6-bytes and even 9-bytes long)
for v8's data section. We can safely ignore all upper bytes, because all
constants that we're using are just `int`s. Since on all supported
platforms `int` is 32bit long (and anyway v8's constants are 32bit too),
we ignore all higher bits if they were read.
Looks like a merge conflict in 77ed12f left in the old, unconditional
install rule. Remove it, the new and improved rule is a few lines down.
Fixes#5044.

Noteworthy installer improvements provided here:
* Support in the Installer UI for not installing shortcuts.
* Support in the Installer UI for choosing a custom install directory.
* Command line support for not installing shortcuts (ADDDEFAULT=nodejs)
* Command line support for custom install directory (INSTALLDIR=c:\tools\node)
