Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ci(repo): hash NODE_VERSION only into test tasks

NODE_VERSION was in globalEnv, so the Unit Tests jobs (which set it per Node version) computed different build hashes from the Build Packages job (which does not set it) and rebuilt every package the PR changed. Scoping it to the test task keeps test results separate per Node version and lets every job share build cache entries.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ci(repo): scope the remaining global environment
 variables to the tasks they affect

Remove NPM_VERSION and NEXT_PHASE, which nothing reads. Hash RSDOCTOR only into the clerk-js and ui builds that read it, and TZ only into tests. Pass TZ and the VERCEL variables through to tasks without hashing them, since they don't change any task's output.
