Hi,

last node-jsdom moved node-request to recommended dependency and no more
build-depends on it (16.4.0+~cs77.17.35-3). Some features won't work but
this features are not used to build and autopkgtest anything, so last
node-jsdom works fine to build and test Bullseye without node-request
(no network access needed). Do you prefer I remove this recommended
dependency (and open a non-RC bug against node-jsdom for missing features)?
