(node:59822) [DEP0040] DeprecationWarning: The `punycode` module is deprecated. Please use a userland alternative instead.
(Use `node --trace-deprecation ...` to show where the warning was created)

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. Install Node 22.4.1 (or likely any 22.x).
2. Run any vip command.

(Optional) Additional notes

See: https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/punycode.html

Spose we technically recommend 18.x (source)... and this seems to be coming out of our deps somewhere.

Still, it'd be nice if we could get smoothness on current LTS.

That is, we need to update node-fetch to 3.x (it is ESM only) or replace it with something else.
