Dataform encountered an error: "length" is outside of buffer bounds - Node v22.7.0

Upgraded to NodeJS v22.7.0 and experienced the following error:

Using NVM and switching to v22.6.0 resolves the issue:

Now using Node v22.6.0 (npm 10.8.2) ~/.local/share/nvm/v22.6.0/bin/node

Interesting, this looks like a ProtobufJS bug! It's not too surprising, given that we use a slightly older version.

I would recommend using the LTS node version v20.17.0 rather than v22.7.0, and see if it still happens.

Thanks @Ekrekr works great on v20.17.0 and v22.6.0 :)
