Subject: [PATCH] CI: run the GPU build legs on demand only

Nothing this workflow builds ships. Our prebuilts come from
unsloth-sd-prebuilt.yml, which is CPU and Apple only by design because GPU
hosts run diffusers/torch. No release here has ever carried a CUDA, ROCm or
Vulkan asset, and build.yml's own release job fails on every push with
"Resource not accessible by integration", so it has never published anything.
Even a forced native GPU load does not use these: install_sd_cpp_prebuilt.py
falls back to leejet upstream when our mirror cannot serve the host.

Measured on run 31238801839, the GPU legs are 561 of 658 minutes, 85% of the
run, and they are the source of the multi-GB artifacts that were filling
Actions storage.

Gated to workflow_dispatch: ubuntu-latest-cmake-vulkan, windows-latest-rocm,
ubuntu-latest-rocm, the container images job, and the cuda12 and vulkan entries
of windows-latest-cmake. What still runs on push and PR is the compile smoke
signal worth keeping: ubuntu-latest-cmake, macOS-latest-cmake and windows CPU,
about 29 minutes.

The matrix entries cannot take a job-level if, so that one uses a fromJSON
ternary. Verified both branches parse back to the original entries with the
defines byte-identical, and that the file is otherwise unchanged outside the
five gates.

Side effect worth knowing: release needs the gated jobs, so on a master push it
now skips instead of failing. It has never succeeded here, so this removes a
standing red X rather than losing a capability. Reverting any single gate
restores the old behaviour for that leg.
