Merge 9fe9d805a1 into 5e2628c959

Closes #1236 
Closes #1114
Closes #940

As extensively documented in #1236 and #940, the non-exact aliases `lts/*`, `*`, `current`, `latest`, and `22` are slow to be upgraded, lagging several days behind the Node.js releases.

Let users know about this downside.

Both of these sources can be slow to upgrade, with multiple days or weeks of lag time after the version release.
 
 `current`/`latest`/`node` always resolve to the latest [dist version](https://nodejs.org/dist/index.json).
