Per https://nodejs.org/en/about/releases/:
* Node.js 19 became "maintenance" on April 1st.
* Node.js 20 became "current" on April 18th, and will become "active LTS" on October 24th.
In order prepare for potentially breaking changes, update the tested Node.js versions from 18 and
19 to 18 and 20.
By the way, refer to JDK 20 installation, which is the latest release.

As usual, also bump its helper crates (`js-sys`, `web-sys` and
`wasm-bindgen-futures`) to the latest versions.
Due to https://github.com/rustwasm/wasm-bindgen/pull/3031, use the
`serde-wasm-bindgen` crate as a replacement to the deprecated
`JsValue::from_serde` function.
Based on the work in #6717, plus additional adaptions mentioned in
https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#wgpu-013-2022-06-30,
and more not-mentioned but required changes.
Also bump `wasm-bindgen` to `0.2.81` (along with its helper crates), as
required by the new `wgpu` version.
Note that I don't fully understand some of the required changes, notably:
* `wgpu::PresentMode::Mailbox` no longer works on my machine (Windows 11) -
The `wgpu` documentation says that `wgpu::PresentMode::Fifo` is the
only guaranteed to be supported, so I switched over to it instead.
* `self.staging_belt.recall()` doesn't return a `Future` anymore -
I assume it became synchronous so I simply removed the `executor`
from there.
* docs: Minor updates to README.md
Extension builds are now output to a `dist` folder, just like all other web packages.
* docs: Minor updates to extension README
The Firefox instructions only work in Firefox Developer Edition or Nightly
* docs: Minor fixes for CONTRIBUTING.md
Omit the quotes in the RUST_LOG value, since they cause an error on Windows and are unnecessary on other platforms.
Also clarify which debugging features are activated by RUST_LOG and which are activated only when building Ruffle with `avm_debug`.
* docs: Add detail to build instructions
Add more detailed instructions for building the desktop app, as suggested by @coreybruce in #7251
There seems to be no good reason for testing on Node.js other than
the current LTS. Moreover, npm@6 has a wontfix issue when upgrading
to 8.4 on Windows, which requires a complex workaround: https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/4341#issuecomment-1040608101.
So avoid it by simply not supporting it.
And enable the module that really uses WebAssembly extensions for the
releases by running the new "npm run build:dual-wasm" command, which
sets the ENABLE_WASM_EXTENSIONS=true environment variable.
`lerna` is a bit stale, and as such it currently has some outdated
dependencies which Dependabot warns on.
Fortunately, npm 7 supports monorepos natively, via "workspaces". So
simply replace `lerna` with this feature. The migration is pretty
neat and requires a very little invervention.
Because Node.js 14 comes with npm 6 by default, upgrade it manually
as shown in https://github.com/bahmutov/npm-install/issues/103#issuecomment-931226602.
As usual, also bump its helper crates (`js-sys`, `wasm-bindgen-futures`)
to the latest versions, except for `web-sys` which is locked by wgpu
to 0.3.50.
Also bump its helper crates (js-sys, wasm-bindgen-futures) to the
latest versions, except for web-sys which seems to be locked by wgpu
to one version before the latest (0.3.50).
* Remove `buildProduction` as it was equivalent to `build`.
* Fix `build:avm_debug` and change it to `build:debug`, which also
disables Webpack optimizations.
