New release to support node20?

[mattnakama-skytap]

Description

I have node v20 on my self-hosted action runner, but the latest release (v1.24.0) of slack-github-action requires node v18.

I tried to use slackapi/slack-github-action@main, but dist/index.js is missing. I ended up forking main and running npm ci && npm run build to make a node20 compatible version here, but it's not quite clean.

I don't quite understand the branching model that this repo uses to cut releases. Could a maintainer perhaps cut a 1.25.0 release from the main branch with official node20 support? Thanks.

Bug Report

Reproducible in: 1.24.0

package version: github-runner-2.311.0

node version: 20.9.0 (nodejs_20)

OS version(s): NixOS 23.11

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install and configure github action runner
2. Install NodeJS v20
3. Make a workflow that calls slackapi/slack-github-action@v1.24.0
4. Trigger the workflow

Expected result:

Workflow would use node20, or there would be a tagged release that uses node20

Actual result:

Failure running workflow when it tries to find node16. Latest v1.24.0 release only works on node16, and there is no way to select a git commit from the current main branch for node20 support.

GitHub actions now logs a warning when running actions using Node 16. This is the line for slackapi/slack-github-action

Node.js 16 actions are deprecated. Please update the following actions to use Node.js 20: slackapi/slack-github-action@v1.24.0. For more information see: https://github.blog/changelog/2023-09-22-github-actions-transitioning-from-node-16-to-node-20/.

this was resolved in #267, we just need a new release now

maybe @seratch, who merged #267, can help us initiate a new release 🤷‍♂️

also cc @filmaj, who appears to be assigned to many of the tasks for the 1.25 milestone.

This was a breaking change, we've had to pin our version to v1.24 now as runners without node20 support will fail.
