Make node executable configurable

Solves https://github.com/pmizio/typescript-tools.nvim/pull/237

Things done in this PR

• Make node executable configurable so tsserver can run with any runtime (node, bun, deno, etc)

How I tested the project

1. Pushed these commits to my github main branch
2. Installed typescript tools pointing to my github

  use {
    "aromeronavia/typescript-tools.nvim",
    requires = { "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim", "neovim/nvim-lspconfig" },
  }

3. Ran application with no configuration (defaulting to node)
4. Ran application with bun configured

My demo videos are more than 10MB so I can't upload them (even tho I'm recording them at speed of light). Will try a different tool tomorrow I guess
