Root cause found for jobs never starting: runs were created all along
(visible in the Actions UI), but every job requested ubuntu-24.04 while
builder-1 only offers ubuntu-latest, linux-build and win-wine - a label
mismatch means jobs queue forever, invisible via the /actions/tasks API
which only lists picked-up jobs.
Mapped build/prepare/gate jobs to ubuntu-latest and the Linux desktop
build to linux-build (electronuserland/builder image, amd64/static only -
the only variant buildable on the single x86 runner). Removed jobs the
runner cannot serve instead of letting them starve the queue: web+desktop
playwright tests (need Docker-in-job and display setup, tracked as
follow-up in issue #2) and the native-Windows desktop build (workflow
assumes signtool/MSVC/PowerShell; the win-wine label awaits a dedicated
wine-based workflow).

Removed ~37 workflow files that are unmodified upstream tooling this fork
doesn't use (Netlify, SonarCloud, Localazy, release-drafter/backport,
GitHub issue-triage bots, npm-publish, Cloudflare Pages deploy, Docker
push to ghcr.io/element-hq). Enabling Actions for this repo would have
activated all of them simultaneously against a single-capacity shared
runner - most would just fail loudly and starve the one job slot shared
with other repos.
Kept build-and-test.yaml (the actual comprehensive build+test+desktop
workflow) and its build_desktop_*.yaml sub-workflows. Fixed: push trigger
now targets `main` (was `staging`/`master`, neither of which exist here -
push events never fired at all before), 4 checkout steps now check out
this fork instead of element-hq/element-web, and removed the macOS
desktop build job since the registered runner (builder-1) has no macOS
label and would queue forever instead of failing cleanly.
