Cancel replaced CI runs and drop the checkout token (closes #107)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

The canonical `.gitea/workflows/check.yml` lacked two settings `dnswatcher` had added, so a byte-identical re-vendor removed them. A `concurrency` block grouped by workflow and branch, with `cancel-in-progress: true`, makes a new push cancel the older run on the same branch and leaves every other branch's runs alone; on 2026-10-02 45 stale runs had queued on the one shared runner. `persist-credentials: false` on the checkout step keeps the job's token out of `.git/config`; `script/cibuild` needs no token. Each has a one-line comment, and the policy's workflow bullet and both checklists describe the file as it now is.

Unverified: the two live checks, which wait on the shared runner.

runs `script/cibuild` on push, and checks out the repo as its only other step,

without it the checkout leaves the job's token in `.git/config` for every
later step. Its `concurrency` block groups runs by workflow and branch

so a new push cancels the older run on the same branch, queued or running, and
no other: runs for replaced commits do not hold up the shared runner.
`script/cibuild` bootstraps, runs the gate phases, and then builds the image,
so a successful run means every check passed; a bare `docker build .` does not
carry the same guarantee, because its gate phases may come from the cache. The
image build is uncached and so runs the gate phases a second time. That is the
price of the rule above, and it is worth paying: the image that ships is built
