Route pnpm 12-only versions and ranges through the plain pnpm native package while preserving the existing Node and @pnpm/exe bootstrap paths for older releases.
Install the plain pnpm v12 package as the single native bootstrap, remove the legacy @pnpm/exe lockfile and runtime path, and retain the standalone input as a no-op for workflow compatibility.
Approve the pinned @pnpm/exe install script for npm 12, add pnpm 12 coverage across supported runner platforms, and clarify that action-setup remains supported alongside pnpm/setup.
