This commit upgrades Node.js version to v20.x in CI/CD environment.
Previously used Node 18.x is moving towards end-of-life, with a planned
date of 2025-04-30. In contrast, Node 20.x has been offering long-term
support (LTS) since 2023-10-24. This makes Node 20.x a stable and
recommended version for production environments.
This commit also configures `actions/setup-node` with the
`check-latest` flag to always use the latest Node 20.x version, keeping
CI/CD setup up-to-date with minimal maintenance.

Using Node 20.x in CI/CD environments provides better compatibility with
Electron v29.0 which moves to Node 20.x.

This upgrade improves network connection handling in CI/CD pipelines
(where issues occur due to GitHub runners not supporting IPv6).

Node 20 introduces `setDefaultAutoSelectFamily`, a global function from
Node 19.4.0, enabling better IPv4 support, especially in environments
with limited or problematic IPv6 support.
Details:
- nodejs/node#45777
Node 20.x defaults to the new `autoSelectFamily`, improving network
connection reliability in GitHub runners lacking full IPv6 support.
