instead of vendoring & uploading separately.
## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **Chores**
- Updated build process to retain the `node_modules` directory, removing
compression and archiving steps.
- Improved plugin installation by cleaning up outdated dependency
archives before reinstalling, enhancing system stability.
- Removed vendor store file references and related bundling steps from
the plugin build and installation process.
- Enhanced dependency restoration during service start to log warnings
without aborting on failure.
- Simplified dependency management scripts by removing vendor store URL
handling and download functionality.
- Streamlined build workflows by removing artifact upload/download and
validation steps related to node modules archives.
- Updated Docker Compose configuration to remove unused volume mounts
for node modules archives.
- Added repository cleanup commands to remove top-level `node_modules`
directories and common build artifact folders for easier maintenance.

due to issues and redundancies in vendoring postinstall side-effects, such as compiled bindings for libvirt, we reverted to vendoring `node_modules`, installed via `npm` instead of a global pnpm store generated by `pnpm`.
This should resolve runtime issues with e.g. the libvirt bindings because `node_modules` will contain the correct "side-effects."
## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **New Features**
- Introduced a command to remove stale archive files during the cleanup
process.
- Added functionality to archive the `node_modules` directory.
- Enhanced dependency resolution with new overrides for specific
packages.
- **Chores**
- Updated dependency settings by replacing one key dependency with an
alternative and removing two unused ones, ensuring optimal deployment.
- Enhanced the installation process to operate strictly in offline mode.
- Updated artifact naming conventions for clarity and consistency in
workflows.
- Modified volume mappings in the Docker Compose configuration to
reflect new artifact names.
- Improved error handling in the GitHub Actions workflow by adding
checks for required files.
- Updated references in the build process to use a vendor store instead
of the PNPM store.
- Removed the management of PNPM store archives from the build process.
