Description of Change

Manually backport #55037. See that PR for details.

CC @dsanders11

The cherry-pick conflicted only in the generated index and hunk headers of the node patches, because this branch's node patch series differs from main's (src_backport_the_perfetto_trace_agent.patch on main is src_add_perfetto_trace_agent.patch here), so I rebuilt them by applying this branch's series plus the change to Node.js v24.22.0 and re-exporting with script/git-export-patches, which gives the same Node.js source delta as on main.
