Auto-update BCD for Node.js/Deno/Bun #229

Problem statement

Currently, the data for JS runtimes (Node.js, Deno, and soon, Bun) is only manually updated in BCD. While there is a project that uses the mdn-bcd-collector, https://github.com/unjs/runtime-compat, and runs tests within the runtimes, it only runs the tests on the latest version of each runtime. Since BCD tracks the specific version a feature was added, the data output doesn't quite work for our needs.

Proposed solutions

The most viable solution would be to supercharge the runtime-compat project and update it so that it can run more than just the latest version of a runtime.
