bircni e0b2f3425e fix(actions): run pull_request workflows on the merge commit (#40076) ...

`pull_request` workflow runs checked out the PR head, so a PR could pass
CI and still break the base branch once merged.

Gitea now maintains `refs/pull/<index>/merge`, a test merge of the head
into the base branch, for open pull requests. It is updated on creation
and mergeability checks and removed on close or merge.

- `pull_request` runs read their workflows from the test merge and
expose it as `github.ref`, `github.sha` and
`github.event.pull_request.merge_commit_sha`. Commit statuses, the API's
`head_sha`, `workflow_run` payloads and `paths` filters stay on the
head.
- Runs fall back to the head when the merge conflicts, the pull request
is closed or git is older than 2.40.
- Hidden refs keep each run's test merge (`refs/gitea/run/<id>`) and
merged commits (`refs/gitea/pull/<index>/merged`) from `git gc`, for
reruns and after the base branch is deleted or force-pushed.
