Upgrade Node.js version (from v10 to v14/v16)
It would be great if you can upgrade the version of Node.js used in Realm Functions (currently in version 10.18.1). Version 10.x, which was an LTS, has been unmaintained for many years. The end of life of Node v12 is scheduled for April 2022.
Is it possible to upgrade Node to version 14 (at least)? Another feature would be to let us choose the Node.js runtime version directly from Realm UI or the CLI (it's possible for example with AWS Lambda).
Working with Node v10 is really difficult for us since most of the dependencies are not compatible with it.

I found Atlas App Services super great platform and planning to launch my business there. However got very disappointed when faced with the fact I am stuck with Node v10 here. I need v16, now. Even firebase-admin does not run as dependency now.
Mongo team please react ASAP! This shouldn't take much effort to upgrade and you would make many developers happy and even more attracted to your platform. -

6 months later, no improvements. In the meantime, Node 18 has just been released.

This is very important, we can't use simple things like `Promise.allSettled` `Intl` API as well as other juicy things as well. I am so tired of doing polyfill for things that already exist.

It is important. Node v10 is really hard to work with!
