Conversation
The CI pipeline was failing because it didn't specify a Node.js version, relying on the pre-installed version on the build image (likely Node 18.x). The latest @vscode/vsce uses undici which requires the File global API, only available in Node.js 20+. This caused 'ReferenceError: File is not defined' during vsce package. Add NodeTool@0 task with Node 20.x to align with the GitHub workflow and other Azure pipelines (nightly.yml, rc.yml) which already specify Node 20.

Problem
The Azure CI pipeline (ci.yml) vsce package step was failing with:
Root Cause
ci.yml did not specify a Node.js version, relying on the pre-installed version on the 1ES_JavaTooling_Ubuntu-2004 image (likely Node 18.x). The latest @vscode/vsce pulls in undici, which uses the File global API - only available in Node.js 20+.
Other Azure pipelines (nightly.yml, rc.yml) and the GitHub workflow (build.yml) already specify Node 20.x. Only ci.yml was missing it.
Fix
Add NodeTool@0 task with versionSpec 20.x before npm install, consistent with all other pipelines.
