Local Node.js Binary Installer

This package, `node`, facilitates the management and usage of specific Node.js runtime versions as a local project dependency. By installing it, a `node` binary is placed within `node_modules/.bin`, which npm automatically adds to the `PATH` when running scripts, ensuring that local project scripts consistently execute with the intended Node.js version, distinct from the system's globally installed Node.js. The current stable version provided through `node@lts` aligns with the latest Node.js LTS release, currently `24.15.0` as of its recent publication. The package generally follows Node.js's traditional release cadence, with major versions being branched every six months and even-numbered versions typically becoming LTS. This approach provides a robust alternative to global version managers (like `nvm` or `volta`) for project-specific environments, simplifying CI/CD setups and team development by treating the runtime as a regular `package.json` dependency. Releases track Node.js major versions, offering flexibility to target specific versions (e.g., `node@18`, `node@20`, `node@lts`) through `npm i` or `npx` commands.
