## Summary
This PR adds **scoped workflows** to Gitea Actions. Workflows defined
centrally in a "source" repository that automatically run on every
repository in scope: an organization's repositories, or (for instance
admins) every repository on the instance. Each scoped run executes in
the consuming repository's own context (its runners, secrets, and
branch) while its content is read from the source repository, so an org
or instance can mandate shared CI across many repositories without
copying workflow files into each one.
An owner or instance admin registers source repositories on a settings
page and can mark individual workflows as **required**. A required
scoped workflow cannot be opted out by a consuming repository and gates
its pull-request merges; an optional one can be disabled per repository.
Scoped workflows live under a dedicated `SCOPED_WORKFLOW_DIRS` (default
`.gitea/scoped_workflows`), kept separate from regular `WORKFLOW_DIRS`.
## Main changes
### Configuration
New `SCOPED_WORKFLOW_DIRS` setting, validated to not overlap with
`WORKFLOW_DIRS`. Default: `.gitea/scoped_workflows`
### Data model & migration
- New `action_scoped_workflow_source` table mapping a registering owner
(`owner_id`, where `0` = instance-level) to a source repository, with a
per-workflow `WorkflowConfigs` map.
- `ActionRun` gains `WorkflowRepoID` / `WorkflowCommitSHA` (the pinned
content source) and an `IsScopedRun` flag.
### Detection & run creation
On consumer events, scoped workflows from the effective sources (the
owner's own sources plus instance-level ones) are matched and turned
into runs that execute in the consumer's context, with content pinned to
the source repo's default-branch commit.
`on: workflow_run` and `on: schedule` are currently not supported.
### Opt-out
A consuming repository can disable an optional scoped workflow (tracked
separately from regular `DisabledWorkflows`); required scoped workflows
can never be disabled, opted out, or bypassed.
### Commit status
A scoped run's status context format is `"<source repo full name>:
<workflow display name> / <job> (<event>)"`
(for example: `my-org/scoped-workflows: db-tests / test-sqlite
(pull_request)`),
keeping it distinct from a same-named repo-level workflow and from other
sources.
### Required status checks
Admins mark workflows required and supply status-check patterns.
`EffectiveRequiredContexts` appends those patterns to the branch
protection's required contexts and they are matched
must-present-and-pass. If the status checks from scoped workflows fail,
the PR cannot be merged.
NOTE: scoped workflows' required status checks patterns can protect any
target branch that has a protection rule, even though the rule's "Status
Check" is disabled. A target branch with no protection rule cannot be
protected.

### Reusable workflows (`uses:`)
A scoped workflow's local `uses: ./...` resolves against the source
repository. `uses:` directory validation honors the
instance-configurable `WORKFLOW_DIRS` and `SCOPED_WORKFLOW_DIRS`
(previously hardcoded to `.gitea`/`.github/workflows`).
### Manual dispatch
`workflow_dispatch` is supported for scoped workflows (web and API),
resolving inputs/content from the source repo.
### Performance
A process-local LRU cache keyed by source repo ID for the per-source
workflow parse, so instance-level and owner-level sources don't open the
source repo and parse workflow files on every event.
### UI
Org / user / admin pages to register and remove sources, search
repositories, and mark workflows required with their status-check
patterns. The repository Actions sidebar groups scoped workflows by
source with owner/instance labels and required/disabled badges.
