When building r-cran-v8 against nodejs 18.4.0 in experimental,
this happened:
# Fatal error in , line 0
# Embedder-vs-V8 build configuration mismatch. On embedder side pointer compression is ENABLED while on V8 side it's DISABLED.

It is true that nodejs is built with V8_COMPRESS_POINTERS=false,
so r-cran-v8 detection has a problem.

This will prevent migration of nodejs 18 to testing,
so I'll gladly make a quick patch to fix the build.

Control: severity -1 important

Since nodejs 18 is in exp and not unstable, the severity should be important instead.
It will be serious only when nodejs 18 is in unstable/testing.

Thanks.
