Here's a short way to see the failure:
1) make sure /etc/apt/sources.list has bionic-updates enabled for universe (and multiverse?)
2) sudo apt update
3) sudo apt install nodejs-dev libssl-dev
...
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nodejs-dev : Depends: libssl1.0-dev (>= 1.0.2) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
In other words, the current nodejs-dev does not fit into the Ubuntu
18.04 ecosystem.

[impact]
The libssl1.0-dev package conflicts with the libssl-dev package, so
this leads to all packages that depend on libssl1.0-dev to conflict
with all packages that depend on libssl-dev; as well as all packages
that depend on those packages (and so on).
[test case]
On a Bionic system (or Cosmic), install libssl-dev, and/or any package that depends on it:
http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/rdepends/v1/bionic/any/libssl-dev
Then, try to install libssl1.0-dev, or any package that depends on it:
http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/rdepends/v1/bionic/any/libssl1.0-dev
see comment 15 for an example of some packages that are force-removed
when installing libssl1.0-dev, due to conflict.
[regression potential]
TBD after fix is determined

The fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nodejs/+bug/1779863
is, not surprisingly, somewhat traumatic for some users.
In my case, installing libssl1.0-dev causes libcurl4-openssl-dev,
libssh-dev, and libssl-dev to be uninstalled, which makes some of our
internal packages fail to build.
Commenting out universe from bionic-updates in /etc/apt/sources.list
would work around this, but that's not going to fly for everybody.
nodejs appears to be the tail wagging the dog now, and that's rather
uncomfortable.
