fix(ci): scrub the registry credential before running repo code
Build & push image / build-and-push (pull_request) Successful in 4s
Build & push image / test (pull_request) Successful in 9m47s

Both Claude reviewers caught this independently, and they are right. The test
job I added wrote a PUSH-CAPABLE REGISTRY_PASSWORD into a plaintext
~/.gitconfig and then ran `go build`/`go vet`/`go test` — repository code — on
pull_request events. This repo is public, so a fork PR could ship a test whose
only job is to print that file. The image build had already answered this
question correctly: its credentials are BuildKit secrets scoped to the
module-download RUN and are never present while code executes. I bolted on a
job that skipped the boundary its neighbour maintains.

Dependencies are now fetched in their own step which deletes ~/.gitconfig
before anything else runs, and asserts the scrub — against the whole home
directory, not against the file it just removed, because the credential can
also land in ~/.netrc or ~/.config/go/env. Verified the assertion is not
vacuous: planting the secret in ~/.netrc trips it. Later steps run with
GOPROXY=off, so any attempt to reach the network fails loudly rather than
quietly hunting for the credential that is now gone.

Also from round 4: TestEndpointProviderNamesAreAllAccepted pinned only
endpointProvider, while the constant is the error text for BOTH resolution
paths — it now asserts each advertised name resolves either way (break-checked
by dropping the gemini alias from resolveModel alone). preflight.sh documents
that ollama-cloud is checked on OLLAMA_API_KEY but hinted as
OLLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY because run.sh copies one to the other first, an ordering
dependency that was invisible from the file.

And the comments that narrated this PR's own edit history ("the first version
of this change...") are rewritten as invariants. That history stops being true
the moment this merges, and the repo's doc policy says as much.
