### What?
BREAKING CHANGE: Bump the minimum required Node.js version.
### Why?
Node.js 16 has reached end-of-life in September.
Bumped to `18.18.2` since it contained some security-related patches: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/october-2023-security-releases
### How?
Bumped `engines` where needed, upgraded the workflows.
This will allow us to remove quite a few polyfills, I'll open separate PRs for those.
Reverts vercel/next.js#51406
This pnpm bump seems to be causing lockfile issues with the react
versions which causes context issues since we need to share the same
react version in the monorepo.
### What?
Fixespnpm/pnpm#6424
### Why?
So users of Node 20 can contribute to Next.js
### How?
Upgrades pnpm with back compatibility to patch `ERR_INVALID_THIS` error.
If Node 14 support isn't necessary, I'd recommend upgrading to pnpm 8
for continued feature support and committing the lockfile.

We want to make sure that our examples are not breaking.
We don't want to be slowed down by broken 3rd party packages, but we
need to ensure that examples covering next.js features are always green.
Added as a standalone workflow that doesn't parallelize. It will just
run on a cron schedule, so we can check for current status. We can add
Slack ping later if we need to.
The workflow tests just that our examples can build, so mostly TS
issues. We could definitely follow up with actual tests, but that is not
as low-hanging.
