Subject: Install README.Debian in the nodejs package.

debian/README.Debian is being installed to the first package listed in
debian/control, nodejs-dev.

Better to install to the nodejs package, where the rest of the
documentation already is.

-
-Node looks for modules in ./node_modules directory first;
-please read node#modules documentation carefully for more information.
-
-Node does not look for modules in /usr/local/lib/node_modules,

-Please read npm-link(1) of npm package, to understand how to properly

-Note that require.paths is not supported in future node versions.

-nodejs command
---------------
-
-The upstream name for the Node.js interpreter command is "node", and
-Debian provides the same (for now) for compatibility.
-
-That is a very generic name and there are other commands that use
-the same name in their upstreams, such as ax25-node from the "node"
-package.
-
-Scripts wishing to refer unambiguously to the Node.js interpreter
-can use the "nodejs" command instead.
-We are pursuing inclusion of this synonym upstream.
