[bug] refactor build-essential package installation

In certain node setups, the webapp gems cannot get built
because `build-essential` and dependent packages were not
present.
I refactored the `site_config::packages::build_essential` class,
which now inherits `site_config::packages`. The latter class removes
all unneccessary (development) packages, but when the
`site_config::packages::build_essential` class is included, some
dev packages are overridden to be installed.

- Tested: [local]
- Resolves: #7834
