## Description:
Node 20 will reach EOL in April 2026. Node.js 20 actions are deprecated
and will be forced to run on Node.js 24 starting June 2, 2026:
https://github.blog/changelog/2025-09-19-deprecation-of-node-20-on-github-actions-runners/
Update our workflows in this PR.
- For _deployment-action_ and _deployment-status_: stop using these and
. They seem quite unmaintained which could pose risks and there is no
Node 24 version yet:
https://github.com/chrnorm/deployment-action/issues/93 and
https://github.com/chrnorm/deployment-status/issues/53. It will probably
be updated to Node 24, but why wait if we don't actually need to be
dependent on them per se.
- Instead of the above, use actions/github-script@v8 with default API.
Maybe a bit more maintainance work, if any, but better than to be
dependent on unmaintained outside actions. For reference see
https://docs.github.com/en/rest/deployments/deployments?apiVersion=2026-03-10#create-a-deployment
- For _auto-author-assign_, use v3.0.1
(4d585cc37690897bd9015942ed6e766aa7cdb97f). From v3.0.0 it uses Node 24:
https://github.com/toshimaru/auto-author-assign/releases
- For _stale_, use v10.2.0 (b5d41d4e1d5dceea10e7104786b73624c18a190f).
From v10.0.0 it uses Node 24: https://github.com/actions/stale/releases
- For other actions, use their appropriate version for Node 24.
- Tested all with FORCE_JAVASCRIPT_ACTIONS_TO_NODE24=true

## Description:
Updates the stale action to:
1. Do nothing with issues, since issues should generally not stale
2. Close PRs and add the Orphaned label to them, along with a comment
about being unmaintained
3. Add a "will not stale" label for PRs we don't want to be closed
4. Removes the start-date because there's really no reason for it

## Description:
Adds a new action to check pull requests every day. If there hasn't been
any action taken in three weeks, the PR gets the `stale` label. Replaces
#1183 and should help with #962.
This action uses a `start date` so that already-existing PRs aren't
affected.
**Before Merging** there should be a discussion: do we want to add
labels indicating who PRs are waiting on? We could add `waiting on
triage` & `waiting on author`/`waiting on OP`, and use actions to
add/remove those labels.
