Description of Change

Reworks patches/node/fix_handle_boringssl_and_openssl_incompatibilities.patch to effectively be a straight backport of nodejs/node#66752 so that it'll drop cleanly when we pick that up from upstream.

Part of that reworking is dropping two chunks and fixing the build by extending the patches/node/electron_enable_node_startup_snapshot_generation_in_chromium_s_v8.patch patch.
