zowe editor plugin fails to build because of node-sass failure

[philippe-richard]

npm i for zowe-editor (among others) fails because there's a dependency on sass which needs a compiler, and assumes some options which appear to not be parsed correctly for Z's nodejs; see the log below:

Hi @philippe-richard : Thanks for reporting this issue. It looks like njsc++ currently doesn't support -std=c++0x option. This was specified in https://github.com/sass/node-sass/blob/master/binding.gyp#L85. I'm checking with our C/C++ colleagues about this support. We may have to add a zOS rule in there to not specify the option, and see if that allows libsass to compile and function properly on z/OS.

This seems to still be true with the 8.15.1 beta:

FSUM3257 njsc++: Option -std=c++0x is not recognized. Option will be ignored.
FSUM3277 njsc++: The specified option "-qdll" is not supported.
FSUM3277 njsc++: The specified option "-qtarget=zosv2r1" is not supported.
FSUM3277 njsc++: The specified option "-qdll" is not supported.
