yarn @ 0.24.6: Don't install node6 if 'node' already installed by other means

Description

I am using MacPorts to install and manage yarn, but I install node.js differently, mostly to use different versions of node as needed. The yarn port automatically installs node6 even though 'node' is on the path. I have to uninstall node every time I update yarn.

It would be great if yarn first checked for 'node' on the path and skipped node6.

In the future, please Cc the port maintainers (port info --maintainers yarn), if any.

If you are asking for the port to use a version of nodejs installed outside of Macports, then we do not support that.
