ui: Fix github run pipeline for node > 16

node-gyp: explicitly set node-gyp to 9.3.0 (latest) in package.json
node-sass: using node-sass is deprecated and named sass now.

Node v18 support:

added --openssl-legacy-provider as workaround for node v18 due to breaking change in the SSL encryption used in webpack
see: webpack/webpack#14532
consider upgrading all SSL related packages in the future
