[#1872] Update Node version to 18

Fixes #1872

Node.js 16 has reached its end-of-life on 11 September 2023.

Let us update Node.js to use Node 18 in the GitHub workflows.

The update involved removing the depreciated node-sass.

Closed because I don't have the required competencies (as of now) to properly fix the issue. Here are some things I learned in the process.

Updating Node to 18 requires node-sass to be updated to at least 8.0
However, node-sass has been depreciated in favor of dart-sass (sass), which is already used in the project.
Additionally, node-sass on windows has a few more requirements that make it harder to set up.
Therefore, it would be easier to remove node-sass and use sass exclusively.
Attempting to do so resulted in a bug similar to #1784

It's interesting to note #2102 somehow fixed the bug mentioned above.
