fix: use @kikobeats/got to support Node.js 24.20

[Kikobeats]

got@11 is unmaintained and crashes on Node.js 24.20+ (nodejs/node#64847): a retried connection error rejects with ERR_SOCKET_CLOSED_BEFORE_CONNECTION and then throws uncaught exceptions, killing the process. @kikobeats/got is got@11.8.6 with that fix backported (upstream declined a v11 release), plus fixes for stream.pipeline(), the cache option and uploads on modern Node.js.

Changes

got ~11.8.6 → @kikobeats/got ~11.8.8 in @browserless/goto and @browserless/screenshot, with require('got') updated in packages/goto/scripts/postinstall.js and packages/screenshot/src/overlay/index.js.

Testing

On Node.js 24.20.0. After the swap both packages resolve @kikobeats/got@11.8.8 and no stock got is left in the tree. Each suite was also run on unmodified master (stock got@11.8.6) in the same worktree, to separate the change from this machine's environment:

Package	stock got@11.8.6	@kikobeats/got@11.8.8
@browserless/goto	4 failures	3 failures, all in the stock list
@browserless/screenshot	2 failures	identical list

The remaining failures are WebGL/ANGLE and graphics tests (webgl renderer goes through ANGLE, webgl vendor is not bot, webgl2 vendor is not bot, graphics features, handles memory errors gracefully on very large images), none of which touch HTTP; they fail the same way without this change. The one difference is in the other direction: dismiss › clicks the acknowledge button next to an SVG button titled "Close" failed on stock and passed here, a flaky browser test.

Note

Low Risk
Drop-in HTTP client fork with the same API; changes are limited to dependency resolution and CI install flags, not application logic.

Overview
Replaces unmaintained got@11.8.6 with @kikobeats/got@~11.8.8 in @browserless/goto and @browserless/screenshot, updating the require sites used for adblocker list download in postinstall and overlay background fetching.

CI workflows now set pnpm_config_dangerously_allow_all_builds: true at the job env level in main.yml and pull_request.yml, so install steps run plain pnpm install instead of repeating --dangerously-allow-all-builds on every job.

Scope the build-script override to dependency installation. This change moves the option from each pnpm install command to workflow scope. It does not make install-model or lerna publish run dependency lifecycle scripts with credentials. However, pnpm-workspace.yaml already enables the same option globally. Remove that global setting and keep the option only on the explicit install steps. Do not use allowBuilds without a pinned, supported pnpm version.
