Update Node.js to 22

[blu3berryys]

Well the Node Nyuu uses is very old. It's v10. It's deprecated and not supported anymore. Also the dependencies are out-of-date and they can have vulnerabilities.

I haven't explicitly tested Node 22, but I imagine Nyuu should work on it. Have you noticed any issues with Nyuu on Node 22?

The only other external dependency is async; I imagine it works with the latest version, though I haven't enabled it in the package list, as I see little reason to do so.
I've not heard of any vulnerabilities in async.js that affect Nyuu; feel free to correct me if you know otherwise.

[blu3berryys]

I think the same, there is no vulnerabilities but Node.js 10 is deprecated now and not supported

[animetosho]

I'm confused over your reference to Node v10.

The minimum supported version here is Node v0.10, which is indeed quite old, but it ensures Nyuu can run on the vast majority of deployments out there. You don't have to run on v0.10 though, v22 should work fine.

Or are you talking about the pre-built binaries, which are built on v12, not v10?

[blu3berryys]

Oh? I thought it's build over v10, my bad.

In that case, newer versions of Node are significantly larger for no discernible benefit.

Though if this is important to you, you can update the build script, with all its monkey patches, to a newer version of Node and submit a PR. You'll likely need to find a solution/alternative to nexe as the version used for building doesn't work with newer Node.
I'll likely still will release with older versions for smaller binaries, so you'll need to maintain backwards compatibility, but having support for newer versions may be beneficial down the line.
