Description

Currently can't node-gyp build node-netroute on Alpine linux. This include doesn't seem POSIX. In other words, this doesn't work

```bash
npm install netroute
```

See https://github.com/libressl-portable/portable/issues/96

Could we just remove the include?

Research direction

Inspect the C++ addon source for the sys/sysctrl.h include, then reproduce the failure with npm install netroute on Alpine Linux. Remove the non-POSIX include if it is unused and confirm that node-gyp builds successfully without it.
