Upgrade GitHub actions to latest versions for Node.js compatibility (…

…#310)

### Summary & Motivation

All GitHub Actions used in the project are updated to their latest
versions, a move primarily motivated by the deprecation of Node.js
version 16. The updates include transitioning from:

- actions/checkout@v3 to actions/checkout@v4
- actions/download-artifact@v3 to actions/download-artifact@v4
- actions/upload-artifact@v3 to actions/upload-artifact@v4
- docker/setup-buildx-action@v2 to docker/setup-buildx-action@v3
- actions/setup-dotnet@v3 to actions/setup-dotnet@v4
- actions/setup-java@v3 to actions/setup-java@v4

However, azure/login@v1 remains unchanged as it awaits an update for
Node.js 20 compatibility, as discussed in
Azure/login#357.
