nodejs-22/22.12.0 package update

[octo-sts]

A recent fix was added to our node-16 package as part of this PR:

• nodejs-16.yaml: Add openssf-options #32816

Believe this should also fix the build error here, so i've ported over the change

Gen AI suggestions to solve the build error:

• Detected Error: Template-id related C++20 compatibility warnings leading to build failure:

warning: template-id not allowed for constructor in C++20 [-Wtemplate-id-cdtor]

• Error Category: Build Configuration

• Failure Point: V8 engine compilation during Node.js build process

• Root Cause Analysis: The build is failing due to C++20 compatibility issues in V8's template usage, specifically in the object-macros.h and fixed-array.h files. The compiler is treating template-id syntax in constructors as errors under C++20 standards.

• Suggested Fix:
Add C++ standard version flag to force C++17 in the configure/build step:

  - name: Configure and build
    runs: |
      export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -std=c++17"
      # Rest of the existing configure and build commands...

• Explanation:

• Node.js 22.x uses V8 engine code that was written targeting C++17
• The build environment is defaulting to C++20 which has stricter rules about template-ids in constructors
• Forcing C++17 standard will maintain compatibility with V8's code patterns
• This is a known issue when building newer Node.js versions with newer compiler versions

• Additional Notes:

• This is a temporary workaround until V8 updates its codebase for C++20 compatibility
• The warnings are coming from V8's internal object system implementation
• The fix doesn't impact Node.js functionality or performance
• Alternative would be to patch V8 source, but using C++17 is simpler and safer

Gen AI suggestions to solve the build error:

• Detected Error: Template-id warnings and compilation failure in V8's object macros:

warning: template-id not allowed for constructor in C++20 [-Wtemplate-id-cdtor]

• Error Category: Build Configuration/Compiler

• Failure Point: V8 compilation during Node.js build process

• Root Cause Analysis:
The error occurs because V8's code uses template constructor syntax that's no longer allowed in C++20. This is a known issue with newer GCC versions that enforce stricter C++20 compliance.

• Suggested Fix:
Add compiler flags to force C++17 mode by modifying the configure/build step:

  - name: Configure and build
    runs: |
      export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -std=c++17"
      export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/-Os/-O2} $common_flags"
      export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS/-Os/-O2} $common_flags"
      # Rest of the existing configure command...

• Explanation:

• V8's codebase was written targeting C++17
• GCC 13+ defaults to C++20 which deprecates certain template syntax
• Forcing C++17 mode allows the code to compile with the original syntax
• This is a temporary fix until V8 updates their codebase for C++20 compatibility

• Additional Notes:

• This is a common issue when building Node.js 22.x with newer GCC versions
• The fix maintains compatibility while not affecting runtime performance
• Alternative would be to patch V8 source directly, but using compiler flags is less invasive

Gen AI suggestions to solve the build error:

• Detected Error: Template-id not allowed for constructor in C++20 [-Wtemplate-id-cdtor]

• Error Category: Build Configuration

• Failure Point: V8 engine compilation during Node.js build process

• Root Cause Analysis: The error occurs because the V8 engine's code uses template constructor syntax that's no longer allowed in C++20. This is a compatibility issue between the V8 codebase and newer C++ standards.

• Suggested Fix: Add the following to the "Configure and build" step to force using C++17:

export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -std=c++17"

Modified section should look like:

  - name: Configure and build
    runs: |
      # Add defines recommended in libuv readme.
      common_flags="-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64"

      # Force C++17 to avoid C++20 template constructor issues
      export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -std=c++17"

      # Existing optimization flags
      export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/-Os/-O2} $common_flags"
      export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS/-Os/-O2} $common_flags"
      export CPPFLAGS="${CPPFLAGS/-Os/-O2} $common_flags"

• Explanation: The V8 engine's codebase uses template constructor syntax that was deprecated and removed in C++20. By explicitly setting the C++ standard to C++17, we avoid these compatibility issues while maintaining functionality. This is a known issue with V8 when building with newer compiler versions that default to C++20.

• Additional Notes:

• This is a temporary fix until V8 updates their codebase to be C++20 compatible
• The fix doesn't impact functionality or performance
• Alternative would be to patch V8 source directly, but using C++17 is simpler

• Root Cause Analysis: The error occurs because V8's code uses template constructor syntax that's no longer allowed in C++20. This is a compatibility issue between V8's codebase and newer C++ standards.

• Suggested Fix: Add the following to the "Configure and build" step, before the python3 configure.py command:

export CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -std=gnu++17"

• Explanation:

• The error occurs because the build is defaulting to C++20 standard
• Node.js v22.12.0's V8 engine contains code that isn't compatible with C++20's stricter template rules
• Forcing GNU C++17 standard will allow the code to compile as it was originally designed
• This matches the existing sed command that changes gnu++14 to gnu++17 in common.gypi

• Additional Notes:

• This is a known issue with V8 when building with newer GCC versions that default to C++20
• The fix ensures consistency with the C++ standard throughout the build
• Alternative approach would be to patch V8 source, but using C++17 is simpler and maintains upstream compatibility
