[Bug]: Engine warning on Node.js 26+ (@fluentui/web-components@3.0.2) #36466

Description

Package version

3.0.2

@microsoft/fast-element version

3.0.0

Environment

Installing @fluentui/web-components@3.0.2 on Node.js 26+ outputs an EBADENGINE warning because the package specifies an upper-bound restriction on supported Node versions (^22.0.0 || ^24.0.0).

The ceiling on the Node.js version field was added in PR #35286.

Suggested Fix
Update the engines.node field in package.json to allow newer Node.js releases (e.g., >=22.0.0 or updating to include ^26.0.0).

Current Behavior

The following warning is printed during install:

npm warn EBADENGINE Unsupported engine {
npm warn EBADENGINE   package: '@fluentui/web-components@3.0.2',
npm warn EBADENGINE   required: { node: '^22.0.0 || ^24.0.0' },
npm warn EBADENGINE   current: { node: 'v26.5.1', npm: '11.17.0' }
npm warn EBADENGINE }

Expected Behavior

npm install completes without engine compatibility warnings on active, stable/even-numbered Node versions unless there is an intentional breaking incompatibility.

Reproduction

npm install @fluentui/web-components@3.0.2

Steps to reproduce

Ensure Node.js version is >= 26.0.0 (e.g., v26.5.1).
Run npm install @fluentui/web-components@3.0.2.
