Add Node.js build dep, remove built js/css files (#9114)

- Added Node.js as build dependency and removes build files from git.
- Added version checks for both Go and Node.js.
- Overhauled the js/css make target to only run when needed.
- Merged the `generate` make target into `build` as per suggestion.
