We removed the default value, because having a default value actually
makes no sense at all. To be helpful for any transitions, add a runtime
check that the variable is set.
Also, while we're at it, update the docs to indicate that the parameter
is required.

The ensure-nodejs role defaults to install nodejs 6 which produces this
error currently:
Failed to update apt cache: W:The repository
'https://deb.nodesource.com/node_6.x noble Release' does not have a
Release file., W:Data from such a repository can't be authenticated
and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.
We need to make a few changes to bring this ensure-nodejs role up to
modern expectations for nodesource usage. First we drop the default
nodejs version from ensure-nodejs. Everyone is already setting this
value to make this role work or they are broken and will need to change
something anyway. This gets us off of the nodejs update treadmill in
this role.
Then with nodejs 16 and newer there is a new gpg key and no deb-src
packages so we need to change the apt configuration if using 16 and
newer. We make these changes to match the corresponding setup_16.x etc
scripts from nodesource.

This patch refactors ensure-nodejs to use the new generic role
to allow it to be cross-platform in the future.
