nw-gyp rebuild is not working on linux after nw.js v 0.22.3

[Asp3ctus]

nw-gyp rebuild gives error on all native modules

• State which version are you using

0.23.0

• State which OS version are you running with
  linux ubuntu
• Provide a reproducible case if possible

for example printer module:

apt-get install libcups2-dev
mkdir test && cd test && npm init
npm i printer
cd node_modules/printer

nw-gyp rebuild --target=0.22.3
^ works

nw-gyp rebuild --target=0.23.0
gives error

#5960

[Asp3ctus]

posted a work around in #5960

[hujiajie]

If I understand correctly, this is because some settings previously located in //src/build/common.gypi were merged into //src/third_party/node-nw/common.gypi, while these facilities are unavailable for nw-gyp users.

@rogerwang , are you working on this? If not, I plan to move these settings in //src/third_party/node-nw/commno.gypi back to //src/build/common.gypi.

close as duplicate of #5960 . Will fix it soon.
