[Nix-dev] Native dependencies in reengineered npm2nix

[Sander van der Burg]

I recently ran into a problem with a missing native dependency as well.
Fortunately, the generated expressions have override facilities that can be
used to manually inject those missing (undetected) ones. I have adapted the
README.md file with an example. Maybe that helps!

Regards,

Sander
