chore: adopt @nodevu/core and remove node-version-data

[ovflowd]

This PR removes the outdated node-version-data package in favour of using modern Node APIS (@nodevu).

The package is maintained by @bnb and is getting into @pkgjs (if I recall correctly).

This also fixes some of the issues we have with the current library.

Could you elaborate on said issues?

Could you elaborate on said issues?

• Being CommonJS whilst the remaining codebase of Node.js org ESM
• Being slow (relatively compared to @nodevu
• Unmaintained
• When API requests fails there's a break of API (without throwing errors) causing unrelated issues within the build of the Website

Are you using anything from that that isn't covered by https://github.com/pkgjs/nv?

[ovflowd]

Ye, such as dependencies (npm) and their versions.

The proposed package also has an elegant way of showing some meta information like support information (is security release, lts release) what are the latest security releases for a given major and many other metadata that can definitely be helpful in the future.
