Upgrade from `2.23.0` to `2.24.0` introduced a breaking dependency update, forcing node v20 as the new baseline

[chrisspiegl]

Describe the bug

I just upgraded the package to v2.24.0 My project is still using v18 since it's the LTS we are building on. v2.24.0 could not be installed because dependency minimatch in eslint-plugin-perfectionist is now requiring node v20 or 22.

This feels like a breaking change even for this library, to drop support for the LTS 18 version?

I just think a mention in the release notes, README, or maybe a major version update would be some good ways to handle this, no?

 ERR_PNPM_UNSUPPORTED_ENGINE  Unsupported environment (bad pnpm and/or Node.js version)
