I was wondering, could we use bundling and clean up the mess that is
current nodejs stack in Fedora?
To be more precise, there are currently over 2000 packages and over 500
nodejs-* is available bugs,
that nobody has time to fix and/or feels like fixing, because updating one
module might/will break several others.
For the sake of maintainability, I'd like to leave as little packages as
possible.

A big thank-you needs to go to Tomas Tomacek for
https://pagure.io/nodejs-packaging/pull-request/2 which is now in effect
on Fedora 28 (Rawhide) builds.
So now any Node.js package that is built in Fedora will automatically have
`Provides: bundled(nodejs-foo)` added automatically.
