chore(deps): move to active LTS node.js 22 / 22.11 for CI

[MikeMcC399]

Issue

On Oct 29, 2024 Node.js 22.x transitioned from Current to Active LTS status. At the same time Node.js 20.x transitioned from Active LTS to Maintenance LTS status. (See Blog Node.js 22.11.0.)

Change

• Update .node-version from (Node.js) 20 to 22.
• Update direct usage of Node.js in example workflows.
• Update Docker images used in CI examples:
  • cypress/base:20.x to
    cypress/base:22.11.0 (including buddy.yml docker_image_tag)
  • cypress/browsers:node-20.x* to
    cypress/browsers:node-22.11.0-chrome-130.0.6723.69-1-ff-132.0-edge-130.0.2849.56-1

Note: These changes do not affect the content of the published npm package cypress-example-kitchensink, so no new version needs to be released.

Verify

On Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS, Node.js 22.11.0 LTS

git clone https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-kitchensink

Note that

• Appveyor lags behind and uses Node.js 22.6
• CircleCI xcode 15.4.0 is outdated, however the latest xcode 16.1 GA offers only the following, so the update for the CircleCI mac-test* jobs is deferred:

  NodeJS Versions (nvm): v20.18.0 v23.1.0
  Default NodeJS: v20.18.0
