Subject: [PATCH] Replace the CI workflow with a make gate target

Gitea Actions is enabled on the instance and the workflow file was
correct, but no act_runner is registered: the push produced zero workflow
runs and the job would queue forever. A workflow that cannot run is worse
than none, because it implies pushes are gated when they are not.

`make gate` runs the same checks locally and is verify-only - gofmt -l must
print nothing and the file is never rewritten. The existing `check` target
stays and keeps its rewriting behaviour; its comment now says so, because
conflating a fixer with a gate is how an unformatted file reaches main.

The workflow is in history at 43116fa if a runner ever appears.
