Remove node-check and go-check, support node prerelease versions (#36382)

1. Remove those checks for the sake of build performance and because go
and node will fail anyways if their versions are incorrect.
3. Support pre-release Node version for determining NODE_VARS.
2. Update to the chinese READMEs to mention `pnpm` which is already
present in english README.
