Installations under ~/.vaadin that have not been used for six months are removed once a new version is installed, and the leftover archives of earlier Flow versions go with them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Documents vaadin/flow#25261
DX/docs · flow/configuration · everyone whose Vaadin builds install
Node.js into
~/.vaadinVaadin used to leave every Node.js version it installed in
~/.vaadinforever, plus the downloaded archive beside it, which is roughly 100 MB
per version. Installations unused for six months are now removed the
next time a new version is installed. The Node.js page still said only
that versions coexist side by side, so a disappearing installation
would look like something going wrong.
Risks:
✅ Docs only. One new subsection, no moved anchors.
Added a "Removing Unused Installations" section to Configuring
Node.js, stating the six-month retention and when the cleanup runs.
Listed the limits of the cleanup: only auto-installed directories
and archives are touched, the installation in use and the last
remaining one are kept, and an installation with no recorded last
use starts its six months from the moment Vaadin first sees it.
