Support nodejs-legacy package for Debian #67

I experienced a problem today when provisioning a Debian Wheezy VM. Node.js and NPM would both install, but the two modules I used with them, buster and sinon, did not. Invocations of either binary would yield an error. It seemed that both relied on the node binary being available, which is not the case with the nodejs package in Debian. However, when the Debian team decided to rename to package, it added an additional package. That package is nodejs-legacy0. The package provides both the node and nodejs binaries, thereby providing both options to modules and developers alike.

Equivalent functionality (if not using NodeSource) can be done with the legacy_debian_symlinks => true parameter
