fix(ci): pin third-party actions to full commit SHAs - #73
Conversation
The account's Actions policy requires a full-length SHA ref. A tag or branch ref is refused at startup — `startup_failure`, no jobs, "this workflow graph cannot be shown" — so these workflows could not run at all. This resolves each ref to the commit it currently points at and records the ref in a trailing comment, e.g. `actions/checkout@<sha> # v4`. `dtolnay/rust-toolchain` takes its toolchain from the ref itself, so those steps also gained an explicit `with: toolchain:` input; without it, a SHA ref would silently lose the channel. No behaviour is intended to change beyond the pins.

Keep the original v0.3.0 ref in the trailing comment.
This line retains the NOSONAR note, but it does not identify the ref replaced by 22e7bdb322c430c1d0dac6b3bb307f4bb139d0be. Add v0.3.0 so reviewers can audit the pin without consulting another file.

Regenerate the lockfile for the CodeQL pin.
codeql.yml uses github/codeql-action at v4.38.0 with commit b96794f015dfd88f77b49b1c93e0fa7110f94c63, but actions.lock records v4.37.9 with commit cdf488f595d80d6e07e03d4674febd5ab45fa938. workflow-linter.yml runs gh actions-lock --verify-local, so this stale entry can fail lockfile verification. The SonarQube, quality, proofs, and static-analysis entries match their workflow pins.
