The GetAllLFSPointers RPC is expensive and was being called for every
mirror. If the repository has not changed, we can assume that the LFS
pointers also did not change. We can skip calling this RPC if there are
no updates.

Since we don't actually get a return code if branches or tags were
updated, we use the repository checksum as a cheaper mechanism (which
XORs the ref contents) to determine whether we run the LFS scan.

Replace Node `joinPaths` with custom impl

See merge request gitlab-org/gitlab!21078

**Why?**
The current implementation of `joinPaths` comes from the
Node core modules `path` and has a number of caveats:

- Does not support non-string values
- Does not handle joining absolute URL's

https://nodejs.org/api/path.html#path_path_join_paths

**Note:**
The new impl of `joinPaths` does not do the same special
normalization which the Node version did. This should be
safe because I'm pretty sure we only use this method to
join paths with `/` that potentially start and end with
a `/`.

Added the version for the screenshot to match the naming
convention
