add -j N alias for build

this way one could add short jobs alias, similar to make(1):
$ node-gyp build -j 1

unfortunately it's not exactly the same as make, as -j1 is not
understood by nopt i guess

package: pin `request` to a version that works on node v0.6

This is probably only temporary until v0.6 support is completely dropped,
but I can't foresee that happening until the Ubuntu PPA moves away from
node v0.6 as the default version it installs.

Hopefully this fixes #250 and won't cause other problems. :D

at that point, and people need to start upgrading...

v0.6.x is EOL...
