Error "Argument list too long" in nodejs v12.19.0

[lexming]

Build of OpenSSL bundled in nodejs-12.19.0-GCCcore-10.2.0.eb can fail if build path is too long:

make[1]: execvp: printf: Argument list too long
make[1]: *** [/theia/scratch/brussel/vo/000/bvo00005/vsc10122/easybuild/sl/build/nodejs/12.19.0/GCCcore-10.2.0/node-v12 .19.0/out/Release/obj.target/deps/openssl/libopenssl.a] Error 127
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

make: *** [node] Error 2
(at easybuild/tools/run.py:533 in parse_cmd_output)

Easy workaround is to build somewehere else with a shorter path (--buildpath). Longterm, this could be fixed by building nodejs with an external OpenSSL from EB.

#16529 switched to using OpenSSL as a dependency for nodejs.
