The Actions runners have stopped working for the Linux Docker containers for years 2022 and earlier due to a change on the GitHub side related to Node.js updates.
The proposed work-around is to continue to use the older actions/checkout@v3 and set the env vars in this PR to use the older node version.

In addition, there is another CentOS-related problem (a yum mirror was shut down) which is preventing the Linux builds from working if the documentation support is on, so I modified the installer script to work around that.
Finally, the macos-11 runners no longer work, so I updated to the macos-12 runners. (The ARM macos-14 runners were not modified.)
