github-action Update `actions/cache` to `node24` version

What would you like?

Update documentation and examples to use a version of actions/cache that runs using node24

Why is this needed?

Documentation and examples currently use actions/cache@v4 which runs.using node20.

The node20 option for GitHub Actions is tied to Node.js 20 that is planned for End-of-life on Apr 30, 2026.

GitHub has deprecated the use of node20 and will force runners to use node24 beginning on Mar 4, 2026 - see Deprecation of Node 20 on GitHub Actions runners.

actions/cache@v4 is the latest version available at this time.

https://github.com/actions/cache/pull/1630 is a stale related PR

Hi @MikeMcC399 ! I found that there's no node24-compatible version of actions/cache available yet, we should monitor and update our documentation once a node24 version is released.

The text of the issue you've responded to says exactly that there is no node24 version of actions/cache available at this time.

You do not need to take any action. The issue is assigned to me and I will be monitoring the progress of actions/cache. In due course you can expect to see a corresponding PR in this repo, updating documentation and examples here, when the prerequisites are fulfilled.
