Backport of #48634

See that PR for details.

Notes: Fixed an error when checking environmental variables when using remote checksums when installing Electron via npm.

If either `npm_config_electron_use_remote_checksums` or
`electron_use_remote_checksums` are set as environment variables, then
force Electron to verify with remote checksums instead of embedded ones.

Fixes #48594.
