## Description
This bumps our actions to versions that use Node 24, instead of 20. Node
20 [enters EOL in April 2026](https://endoflife.date/nodejs).
This PR also includes various cleanups that should speed up CI, and make
it less complicated. This includes removing the architecture field from
setup-java, as it detects the native architecture.
We also upload our Gradle dependencies for charting in GitHub, this
helps us keep track of what we're using, and if we need to upgrade.
Finally, we bump the version of our image, to fix issues with the Rubik
Pi fan among other reasons.
continuation of #2194
supercedes #2276
