bump Node runtime to 24 LTS

The repository still pinned parts of the build and packaging pipeline to
Node 22, which diverged from the current production LTS line and could
cause inconsistent behavior between CI/package builds and the intended
runtime baseline.

Update the Node runtime pins to the 24 LTS line for packaging and image
build stages, and keep the packaging workflow's Node selection
centralized through `NODE_VERSION`.

This keeps Docker image Node pins explicit for Dependabot visibility
while aligning build-time Node usage with the updated LTS target.
