Research direction

Start with the README and locate the source for the Node 12 CI line, then trace how the V8 LKGR is brought into the CI builds. Done means the README explains how Node and V8 LKGR come together and records the current V8 LKGR version.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The readme currently does not explain how the ci works.

I couldn’t find the source for the node 12 ci line for example. It would be useful to also know how the v8 lkgr is brought in, and what the current version of that is.

The broader question to clarify would be how exactly node and v8 lkgr come together, and result in the ci builds.
