Auto-publish to npm not working anymore

[kfrederix]

Hello, it looks like the auto-publish to npm task stopped working.
I can see in the commit history that the renovate bot is still working and packages are upgraded, but no new version has been published anymore since 18th of december 2024.

This is the error on the publish task:

file:///home/runner/work/angular/angular/node_modules/.pnpm/execa@9.5.2/node_modules/execa/lib/utils/max-listeners.js:1
import {addAbortListener} from 'node:events';
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: The requested module 'node:events' does not provide an export named 'addAbortListener'

Node.js v18.13.0
 ELIFECYCLE  Command failed with exit code 1.

From what I can tell, it looks switching from Node v18 to the lastest LTS version could fix this, but I'm not 100% sure.
Let me know if you would me to help, I'm willing to submit a PR.
