ethernet e4fe99987d feat(ci): migrate all workflows to GKE self-hosted runners
Swap all `runs-on: ubuntu-latest` to `runs-on: arc-runner-set` all jobs.
The ARM docker build job in docker.yml uses `${{ matrix.runner }}`
and is left untouched since the GKE runner pool is x86_64 only.

Runners are backed by ARC (Actions Runner Controller) on a GKE cluster
with a spot preemptible node pool that scales based on job demand.

Use the baked Electron dependencies for the desktop E2E job.

name: History Check
# Rejects PRs whose branch has no common ancestor with main.
#
# In May 2026 PR #25045 was merged from a branch that had been disconnected
# from main's history (likely an accidental `git checkout --orphan` or
# `.git/` re-init). GitHub's merge UI does not refuse merges of unrelated
# histories, so the PR landed cleanly with the intended one-file change —
# but its parent-less root commit (413990c94) got grafted into main as a
# second root, and ~1500 files' worth of `git blame` history collapsed
# onto that single commit.
#
# This check catches the failure mode by requiring `git merge-base` between
# the PR head and main to be non-empty.
