error 'manifest.filter is not a funcion' when using node-version with "lts/*"

[giulianisanches]

Description:
I'm trying to install the latest LTS version using the syntax "lts/*" and getting the error manifest.filter is not a function. Using a different syntax, like 22.x works.

      - name: Setup Node.js
        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version: "lts/*"
          check-latest: true

Action version:
actions/setup-node@v4

Platform:

• Ubuntu
• macOS
• Windows

Runner type:

• Hosted
• Self-hosted

Tools version:
Default ones installed with ubuntu 20.04

Repro steps:
I just have an action like below, and it fails when I push to the wip branch:

name: Build

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - wip

jobs:
  build:
    environment: shared
    runs-on: [self-hosted]
    steps:
      - name: Setup Node.js
        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version: "lts/*"
          check-latest: true

Expected behavior:
I expect it to install the latest LTS version

Actual behavior:
build fails with the message manifest.filter is not a function
