[BUG] Overrides are not updating after running npm install

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

This issue exists in the latest npm version

• I am using the latest npm

Current Behavior

npm 11.x does not install overrides. npm 10.x is working fine.

Expected Behavior

npm 11.x installs overrides.

Steps To Reproduce

sudo npm i -g npm@10
npm upgrade
# Overrides properly installed

sudo npm i -g npm@11
npm upgrade
# Overrides completely ignored and rolled back

In my config I am trying to override a dependency from a older package from nan 2.19.* to nan 2.23.*, but the overriding version is not getting installed

Start by reproducing the npm 10.x versus 11.6.1 behavior with the provided package.json overrides and the net-ping/raw-socket/nan dependency chain. Trace npm's override and upgrade handling to determine why nan 2.23.* is rolled back; done means npm 11 installs the configured override consistently.
