fix(198): the action fails closed, the caller decides scheduling, the guard decides the forge (#198)
@codex-reviewer-andresmgsl's second review, both points taken.

The refs action goes back to `forge_preflight || exit 1`. 97e63ac had it exit 0
with a notice so the PR check would not be red, and that conflated two
different questions: "this action cannot produce a verdict" is the ACTION's
contract and must stay a refusal, while "this check should not block the
board" is the CALLER's decision. The caller now carries it —
refs-guard.yml skips unless github.server_url is github.com, mirroring
forge_detect positively. A skipped check is a green head; an action that
reports success it did not earn is not. The leaked preflight_err temp file
goes with the revert.

The workflow guard asked the wrong question. `command -v gh` alone passes the
moment a Forgejo runner image happens to ship gh, and then dispatches against
a forge that cannot serve it — the client/forge mismatch forge_preflight
exists to prevent. It decides the FORGE first now, mirroring forge_detect
positively, and the binary second. The source guard splits to match: a
declaration guarded only by binary presence is reported, with a fixture that
fails on exactly that shape.

The warning text was also wrong on the facts, as noted: issue-event sweeps ARE
this caller's event-driven wakes, so they are precisely what is lost. It now
says the hourly scheduled sweep survives and every event-driven wake through
this caller does not, until #205.

Point 1 of that review — jq 1.6 accepting an empty payload — was already fixed
in 728102a, pushed before the review landed.

Verified under the runner's jq 1.6 as well as 1.7: 28 test files, 0 failed
both ways. shellcheck 0.10.0 (CI's pin), actionlint, self-ref, marker,
vendored, changelog-armed all clean with every file tracked.

### Added
- This tree carries upstream ceremony through `8c3a4d1` (upstream `0.6.0`):
`lib/attention.sh`, `lib/read.sh`, `actions/refs-not-closing`, the guarded
reads, and the ruling and window rules (#198).
- `test/no-runtime-gh.test.sh` — the forge-portability guard: no runtime `gh`
outside `lib/forge-github.sh` unless the file declares
`CEREMONY_FORGE_CLIENT=gh` (#198).
- `CHANGELOG.md` names the upstream commit this tree carries, so a drill
record can say which `0.6.0` it exercised (#197, #198).
### Fixed
- Eight runtime `gh` call sites arrived with the merge outside every conflict
hunk, in functions upstream added to files this tree already owned. Seven
are ported onto the shim; the eighth is named with its reason (#198).
- The open-PR gather reads `Refs`, not only closing keywords. Reading one side
for closing links and the other for `Refs` is what released a live claim in
crew#321, and this tree carried that shape (#198).
- The merged record gains `merged_at`, so `post_merge_pr_for_issue` answers
the PR that merged last rather than the highest-numbered one. Without the
column every sort key ties and the old order returns silently (#198).
- The open gather feeds `open_pr_issues` one record per physical body line. A
whole decoded body as one record loses every declaration including the
first, and reclaims a claim a live PR was holding (#198).
- The post-merge nudge links the issue on the forge in play rather than a
hard-coded `github.com` (#198).
- `actions/refs-not-closing` reports and skips on a forge it cannot speak,
naming the client and #199, instead of standing red on every PR. It reaches
the forge zero times, so no verdict is produced either way (#198).
- `.github/workflows/labels.yml`'s sweep dispatch declares the client it
speaks and decides the FORGE before the binary, so a Forgejo runner that
happens to ship `gh` cannot dispatch against a forge that cannot serve it.
#205 ports it to REST (#198).
- `actions/refs-not-closing` fails closed on a forge it cannot speak, and
`.github/workflows/refs-guard.yml` carries the scheduling decision — the
action never reports a success it did not earn (#198).
- `issue_payload_valid` refuses an empty payload on jq 1.6 as well as 1.7.
`jq -e` exits 4 on empty input under 1.7 and **0** under 1.6, and this
instance's runner carries 1.6 — so the guard #247 D3 added to refuse an
unreadable read was accepting one here (#198).
- The post-merge nudge strips a trailing slash from the server URL, so a forge
URL carrying one does not render `//owner/repo` (#198).
- `.github/scripts/release-path.sh` names `lib/forge.sh`: #191 put the shim on
the release doors' executable path here, so a doors-unchanged record that
omitted it was measuring the wrong set (#198).
