Summary:

* Bump Metro to ^0.83.1, lower minimum Node.js version to 20.19
Summary:
Metro release notes: https://github.com/facebook/metro/releases/tag/v0.83.1
The only public-facing change is a lowering of the minimum Node.js version from 22.14 to 20.19.
This will need picking to RN `0.81-stable`

* Do not setup-node twice in test_js (#52737)
Summary:
I've noticed that test_js (20) and test_js (24) are actually running on Node 22.
That's because the `yarn-install` action is invoking setup-node again with the default value (22).
This changes it. Also I'm cleaning up the workflows so that every `yarn-install` invocation is happening just after the `setup-node` invocation.

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/52357
Changelog: [Internal]
Adds a hyper-minimal build script using `electron/packager` that produces custom binaries for the experimental React Native DevTools standalone shell. The main user-facing benefit of this is replacing the Electron name and icon with our own branding.
NOTE: `electron/packager` is designed to include the application code in the resulting binary. This is arguably overkill for us - the current launch model of `electron src/electron/index.js` is actually wholly sufficient for what we need - but I decided to go with the grain of the available tooling for simplicity.

Implements the first RNDT shell-specific feature based on https://github.com/facebook/react-native-devtools-frontend/pull/168 - namely, the ability for RNDT to foreground itself when certain events occur. This is most noticeable when pausing on a breakpoint.

## This diff
Creates the `react-native/debugger-shell` package, containing a basic implementation of an Electron-based shell for React Native DevTools. At this point, there is no direct dependency on the new package from the rest of React Native - it's designed to be used as part of a Meta-internal experimental rollout of the new debugger shell via the `BrowserLauncher` interface in `dev-middleware`.
