Task name

CopyFiles

Task version

2.254.0

Issue Description

Recently the CopyFilesV2 task has been updated in our hosted agents to version 2.254.0 and some of the agents where failing in the CopyFilesV2 task, which previously worked.

After some investigation we've found that the task is failing when executed in very old versions of the agent (2.202.1, for example).

Digging deeper, we have found that the task.json of the CopyFilesV2 tasks states that the minimum agent version is 2.182.1, which is less than the version of the agents where the task is failing (2.202.1) but the CopyFilesV2 v2.254.0 depends on azure-pipelines-task-lib v5.2.0, from with it uses the rmRF function. And the rmRF function of azure-pipelines-task-lib uses the function rmSync which was added in node v14.14.0.

So, I think that the minimumAgentVersion should be updated to 2.206.1 as the CopyFilesV2 task needs at least node 14 to work because azure-pipelines-task-lib uses the function rmSync and the agent v2.206.1 is the first version which included the node16 execution handler.

Also, the execution > Node10 configuration in the task.json should be also removed because this task will fail if node version is below v14.
