| Node.js requires `glibc` 2.17+. This should be the standard for GNU Linux based systems. | ||
| The Node.js native binaries require glibc 2.28+. This is standard for most modern GNU/Linux distributions (Ubuntu 20.04+, Amazon Linux 2023, RHEL 8+). |

I don't think glibc was changed, still 2.17.

Also need to ensure other pages are updated with new minimum Node version, like doc-gen/typedoc/node-home.md (which also needs to remove protobuf dependency note).

Summary
Update Node.js documentation to reflect the replacement of Unix socket IPC with a direct NAPI-RS native binding layer.
Source Commits
e2706b0— Node: Replace socket IPC with direct NAPI layer (#5325)Changes
Context
The Node.js client was rearchitected to replace Unix socket IPC + protobuf serialization with a direct NAPI-RS binding into the Rust core (valkey-glide #5325). This changes the minimum supported Node.js version to 20, removes the protobuf dependency, and adds MUSL/Alpine Linux support via prebuilt native binaries.
