Description

When github-action is run, the version of Node.js which the Cypress log shows is being used (v16.13.0) is neither the installed version (18.13.0), nor the default version for the runner (v16.19.0).

Cypress shows: v16.13.0 (/home/runner/runners/2.300.2/externals/node16/bin/node)
Default Node.js in runner ubuntu-22.04 runner: v16.19.0

Installed Node.js: 18.13.0 Found in cache @ /opt/hostedtoolcache/node/18.13.0/x64

Steps to reproduce

Environment:
GitHub runner: ubuntu-22.04
Node.js: lts/hydrogen (18.13.0)
Cypress: 12.3.0
github-action: v5.0.5

Run action with following core instructions:

    runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
    env:
      NO_COLOR: true
    steps:
      - name: Checkout repository
        uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - name: Setup Node.js 18 environment
        uses: actions/setup-node@v3
        with:
          node-version: 'lts/hydrogen'
      - name: Cypress run
        uses: cypress-io/github-action@v5
        with:
          spec: cypress/e2e/spec.cy.js

Note that the log shows

The log shows Node.js version v16.13.0 being used by Cypress, although v18.13.0 was installed before the github-action was called.

Example action to reproduce

• https://github.com/MikeMcC399/cypress-test-tiny/blob/node-test/.github/workflows/cypress-action.yaml

Action log file

• https://github.com/MikeMcC399/cypress-test-tiny/actions/workflows/cypress-action.yaml

Expectation

The action should use the Node.js version installed by actions/setup-node@v3 - in this case 18.13.0 - and not Node.js v16.13.0.
