This bumps actions/cache v5 → v6 in .github/workflows/build-and-deploy-node-bindings.yml (the only usage of actions/cache in the repo).

Interface compatibility: The action.yml manifests for v5 and v6 are identical — same inputs (path, key, restore-keys, upload-chunk-size, enableCrossOsArchive, fail-on-cache-miss, lookup-only, save-always), same cache-hit output, and the same using: node24 runtime (no runner runtime change). Our step only uses path and key, both unchanged, so this is fully backwards-compatible.

Changelog (v5 → v6): v6.0.0 bumps internal deps (@actions/cache ^6.0.1, @actions/core ^3.0.1, etc.), migrates the action's internals to ESM, and upgrades Jest to v30 — all internal to the action's build, no consumer-facing behaviour change. v5.0.4/v6 also carry security fixes (minimatch ReDoS, undici decompression-bomb protection, fast-xml-parser), so this is a net security improvement.

Build/verification: No build applies to a GitHub Actions tag bump; the workflow YAML parses correctly and no source changes were needed. Socket Security and Project Report checks passed.

Note (not blocking): The failing linux check on this PR is unrelated — it comes from build-and-deploy-python-bindings.yml (failed at PyO3/maturin-action@v1), which does not use actions/cache. Also worth noting the workflow this change touches currently has all on: triggers commented out, so it doesn't run in CI as-is.
