[Openstack] Nodejs in horizon

So was there thought about the fedora and other distributions when adding this as a dependency.

I thought we were going to try to support both, but if a package is currently only in a single distribution, that makes it hard to develop on both.

Not sure if this is valid, and it might be helpful: http://nodejs.tchol.org/

It seems like this hairy wart is coming back up again, ie, not including stuff on only one distro, or at least planning ahead accordingly to how the other distros can get it... This is especially important in CI/integration tests, where now without a special package, how can this stuff be tested in the other distros...
