TODO list for v24 + Next.js v16

[avivkeller]

This issue is the general tracker for things we need / should do when Node.js v24 becomes LTS in October, and Next.js 16 is released:

Node.js v24 LTS

• Remove npm re-installation (Added in chore: ensure npm@11 is installed for OIDC publishing #8091)
• Update the .nvmrc
• Update @types/node

Next.js v16

• [Next.js] Move away from top-level await/React's cache() for next-data in favour of 'use cache' from Next.js #8207 (See https://nextjs.org/blog/next-16-beta#improved-caching-apis + https://react.dev/blog/2025/10/01/react-19-2#cache-signal)
• Possibly use turbopackFileSystemCacheForDev?
• Possibly use The React Compiler
• Possibly use Activity component
