Use standard lessc and minify CSS using Node.js (#2337)

* Use standard lessc and minify CSS using Node.js

This changes the previous nonstandard `lessc` to the official one and
enables CSS minification via the clean-css module.

To build CSS, Node.js is required along with a `npm install` to get the
tools installed locally in node_modules so there is no dependency on
binaries in PATH. Benefits include:

- Allows one to have a standard lessc in PATH.
- Can now use command line switches on lessc.
- Minified CSS brings faster page load times and also has the benefit
  of discouraging contributors from editing CSS directly.

To build CSS, Node.js is required along with a `npm install` to get the
tools installed locally based on the information in `package.json`.

The 'make stylesheet' task was modified to run without condition. This
makes it easier to work on the make task itself without having to delete
files.
