Support building for externally shared js builtins

Initial support for loading unbundled module in `AddExternalizedBuiltin`.

- Reduces downstream distribution package size (by not shipping wasm twice
  and not base64-encoding it)
- Provides a cleaner stacktrace
- Easier to patch

To enable this, pass `EXTERNAL_PATH=/path/to/global/node_modules/undici`
to `build/wasm.js`.
You shall also pass this path to `--shared-builtin-undici/undici-path`
in Node.js's `configure.py`.

+### Building for externally shared node builtins
+
+If you are packaging `undici` for a distro, this might help if you would like to use
+an unbundled version instead of bundling one in `libnode.so`.
+
+To enable this, pass `EXTERNAL_PATH=/path/to/global/node_modules/undici` to `build/wasm.js`.
+You shall also pass this path to `--shared-builtin-undici/undici-path` in Node.js's `configure.py`.
