Pull request overview
Adds ActionLint to CI for static validation of GitHub Actions workflows, and updates existing workflows to be more shell-safe (quoting/loop fixes) so they lint cleanly.
Changes:
- Introduces a new
.github/workflows/actionlint.ymlworkflow that runsrhysd/actionlintwith a problem matcher. - Adds ActionLint configuration and a problem matcher definition under
.github/. - Hardens several workflow shell snippets (quoting command substitutions; avoiding
for f in $(find ...)word-splitting).
