[ENHC] Create Yarn constraints to validate node version

[prastoin]

Introduction

This is PR is a suggestion ! And should be discussed

With yarn ^4, during installation won't raise an error if current dev env does not satisfies the engines policy.
We have usually 10+ contributors support request regarding higher node version issue per week

I would have preferred a very declarative integration using npm engines but this does not seems to be natively supported by yarn

We should keep in mind that this might block any machines from our CICD if they have diff node version installed ( such as running the project on a different node version could result in bugs too )

Implem

Created a yarn constraints run after each installation that checking if current node version satisfies defined engines range ( might also be done for others engines entries )

I assume we will always have the same engines policy for every packages, at least that's not a consideration from now

Further

We could refactor our package.json engines into only one using Yarn.set etc

Resource

• https://yarnpkg.com/configuration/yarnrc
• https://yarnpkg.com/features/constraints

Note

• Not running constraints in preInstall hook as won't be effective on fresh install
• engine-strict is an npm-config
• devEngines are npm feature too ( for instance pnpm current PR Support devEngines field pnpm/pnpm#8153 )

Conclusion

As always any suggestions are more than welcomed !

PR Summary

This PR adds Yarn constraints to validate Node.js version compatibility, addressing frequent support requests related to version mismatches.

• Added enableConstraintsChecks: true in .yarnrc.yml to enable Yarn's constraints feature
• Created new yarn.config.cjs file that implements Node.js version validation using semver
• Added engineStrict: true to package.json to enforce Node.js version requirements
• Added @yarnpkg/types as a dev dependency to support type checking in the constraints configuration
• Implementation checks current Node version against required version (^18.17.1) and throws clear error messages when mismatched
