GitHubCI: improve nodejs update mechanism

We found this easier method in StackOverflow [1].
The regression we were getting in the SanityCheck
job was:

```
+ npx commitlint --version
@commitlint/[email protected]
+ npx commitlint --from HEAD~1 --to HEAD --verbose
/__w/conventions/conventions/node_modules/typescript/lib/typescript.js:139
    for (let i = startIndex ?? 0; i < array.length; i++) {
                             ^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token '?'
