nodejs_18: drop due to upstream EOL

doc/release-notes/rl-2505.section.md

···
 
 - `mkBinaryCache` now defaults to using `zstd` compression for the binary caches it creates. The previous `xz` compression method can be used by passing `compression = "xz";`.
 
+- `nodejs_18` package was removed due to upstream End-of-Life in April 2025.
+
 - `nodePackages."@commitlint/config-conventional"` has been removed, as it is a library, and projects should depend on it instead.
 
 -  zigbee2mqtt is now available in version 2.x as `zigbee2mqtt_2`. In NixOS 25.11 we'll remove `zigbee2mqtt_1` and default to `zigbee2mqtt_2`. See the [breaking changes](https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt/discussions/24198) announcement for 2.0.0.

-From 4b83f714c821d6d4d2306673ee3a87907cfec80e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
-From: Ivan Trubach <[e-mail]>
-Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2024 10:45:13 +0300
-Subject: [PATCH] build: support setting an emulator from configure script
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-V8’s JIT infrastructure requires binaries such as mksnapshot to be run
-during the build. However, these binaries must have the same bit-width
-as the host platform (e.g. a x86_64 build platform targeting ARMv6 needs
-to produce a 32-bit binary).
-
-To work around this issue, allow building the binaries for the host
-platform and running them on the build platform with an emulator.
-
-Based on Buildroot’s nodejs-src 0001-add-qemu-wrapper-support.patch.
-https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/blob/c1d5eada4d4db9eeaa1c44dd1dea95a67c8a70ca/package/nodejs/nodejs-src/0001-add-qemu-wrapper-support.patch
