Tim van der Meij a3b19875ec Implement Node.js caching in the GitHub Actions workflows
The `setup-node` action contains built-in support for caching [1], so
this commit makes sure we use it for all Node.js-based workflows to
reduce workflow execution time.

Note that, contrary what one might expect [2], the `node_modules`
directory is deliberately not cached because it can conflict with
differing Node.js versions and because it's not useful in combination
with `npm ci` usage which wipes the `node_modules` folder
unconditionally. Therefore, the action instead caches the global `npm`
cache directory instead which does not suffer from these problems and
still provides a speed-up at installation time.
