timothy 5ba737bec7 ci(416): skip heavy jobs on docs-only changes
Docs-only changes (docs/** or *.md) ran the full docker-build matrix (~9 min).
Each heavy job (test, migrations, functional-e2e, build) now runs
scripts/ci-detect-docs-only.sh as its first post-checkout step and gates every
real step on docs_only!='true'. The jobs still RUN and report success in
seconds, so the two required contexts keep reporting — a docs-only PR stays
mergeable (never an if:-skipped required job; Gitea 1.25.4 reports if-skip as
'skipped', verified with a throwaway probe PR). build skips its image steps on a
docs-only push to main; tag builds force docs_only=false. Detection uses
--no-renames so a code->docs rename can never be misclassified as docs-only.

# scripts/ci-detect-docs-only.sh — emit `docs_only=true|false` to $GITHUB_OUTPUT for the
# docker-build.yml heavy-job gate (ersatztv#416). A change is "docs" iff every changed path is
# under docs/ or is a *.md file anywhere. docs_only=true ONLY when EVERY changed path is docs;
# any code path, an undeterminable diff, a tag build, or a non-PR/push event => false (run the
# full matrix).
#
# The bias is ALWAYS toward running MORE, never less: a false 'true' would skip the real
# test/migrations/build work on a code change, so every ambiguous case resolves to
# docs_only=false. It is fine (just wasteful) to run the full matrix on a docs change; it is a
# correctness bug to skip it on a code change.
#
# Why this is the merge-gate-safe half of #416: the two REQUIRED contexts (`Build & test (.NET)`,
# `EF migration integrity (SQLite + MySql)`) are gated by SKIPPING STEPS inside a job that always
# runs and always reports `success` — never by an `if:`-skipped job. On Gitea 1.25.4 an
# `if:`-skipped job reports commit-status state `skipped` (verified, PR #418), and how branch
# protection treats a `skipped` REQUIRED context is not something we rely on. Non-required jobs may
# skip freely (production already proves a `skipped` non-required context — e.g. `build` on every
# PR — does not block merge).
#
# Runs identically locally and in CI. Locally (no $GITHUB_OUTPUT) it prints the decision to stdout;
# e.g. GITHUB_EVENT_NAME=pull_request GITHUB_BASE_REF=main scripts/ci-detect-docs-only.sh
