Require Node.js 20 and update CI/docs (#1832)

Bump the project's Node requirement to v20 and align tooling and docs. Updates package.json engines and Volta pin, .nvmrc, README, CONTRIBUTING, copilot-instructions.md, and the getting-started docs to require Node.js 20. Adjust CI workflows by adding concurrency groups to ossf-scorecard, spellcheck, and super-linter, and remove Node 18 from the test matrix so tests run on 20/22/24. These changes standardize the development environment on Node 20 LTS and reduce duplicated CI runs.
