Moreover, we indicate the exact version that belongs to each commit
hash. This not only makes it easier to compare the hash against the
release tags in the actions repositories, but hopefully also makes it
easier for e.g. Dependabot to keep the comments up-to-date since not all
of them were correct and varying comment styles were in use. This commit
aligns all of them to a single `v{major}.{minor}.{patch}` style.
The `setup-node` action contains built-in support for caching [1], so
this commit makes sure we use it for all Node.js-based workflows to
reduce workflow execution time.
Note that, contrary what one might expect [2], the `node_modules`
directory is deliberately not cached because it can conflict with
differing Node.js versions and because it's not useful in combination
with `npm ci` usage which wipes the `node_modules` folder
unconditionally. Therefore, the action instead caches the global `npm`
cache directory instead which does not suffer from these problems and
still provides a speed-up at installation time.

This reverts commit d618a2bc7ebe550cfcef31df8ddd0c8a12cf6bf1.
Unfortunately it did not fix the hanging actions for the locale update
job; fixing the issue is tracked in #20813.
