This flag is useful, to make gyp not build and link node cores /src/*.cc files. However all dependecnies will be built. This can be used to build node proper with an arbitrary build runner and/ or with itself.

I'm not seeing anything in here that warrants doing this as a separate PR, particularly in vcbuild.bat where the new variable isn't even used. I'd suggest closing this and rolling it up in proposed changes in #7440 unless you can demonstrate usefulness outside of that work. |

buildDescription of change
In the wake of #7440 in order to replace GYP nodejs/CTC#2, this would be the first step. Effectively
./configure --no-target-typewill still compile any dependency and runjs2c, but not let gypgcc src/*.cc -c -o out/*.oand run the linker as last build step.This can be used, as presented in the above PR, to build node-core with node itself.
In order to fully compile without gyp, it's a long way, but definitely doable
