PR Checklist
Please check if your PR fulfills the following requirements:
PR Type
What kind of change does this PR introduce?
What is the current behavior?
The build page at circleci displays the following notice:
Following the article we can see that the current images are no longer supported and no updates will be published.
Issue Number: N/A
What is the new behavior?
The recommended convenience images are used and the deprecation warning is no longer displayed.
The previous image was pinned on Node.js v16.*. The new images don't support major-only version pinning and require an explicit minor version, 16.15 as of now (see github repo).
I couldn't find a list of changes between circleci/node and cimg/node, the only reference I found says it's a direct replacement.
Does this PR introduce a breaking change?
