Use this script to build libv8_monolith.a as dependency for Node.js
Required dependencies can be fetched with fetch_deps.py.

Usage: build_gn.py <Debug/Release> <v8-path> <build-path> [<build-flags>]...

Build flags are passed either as "strings" or numeric value. True/false
are represented as 1/0. E.g.

  v8_promise_internal_field_count=2
  target_cpu="x64"
  v8_enable_disassembler=0
