Bug description

When updating node using Herd I would expect my previously installed global packages to be carried over to the new version. For this Herd should call nvm using the command nvm install <new-version> --reinstall-packages-from=<old-version>

Steps to reproduce

• install an outdated node version from cli (e.g. nvm install 18.19)
• install any global npm package (e.g. npm install -g firebase-tools)
• update node using Herd
• open a new Terminal and try to use any previously installed npm package (e.g. firebase) -> zsh: command not found: firebase
