When node is build with --fully-static option, node cannot use c++ addon. #3600
Description
When node is compiled with --fully-static option. Node gives an error while using c++ addon as shown below,
Error: /sd/addon.node: undefined symbol: node_module_register
The issue is that even though node_module_register is present in the compiled node, since it is statically build dlopen() fails to load this symbol.

This is already noted in the wiki and is a known limitation of fully static executables.
There are some workarounds/hacks to deal with this, but they are not particularly pretty and some of them may not work for all applications/scenarios. For more detailed information, you might start by reading this discussion thread on the musl-libc mailing list.
