- Add reusable build-ci-images workflow to build and push ci-<sha> images for all distros
- Make all deploy test workflows use prebuilt CI images (no local rebuilds)
- Replace ci-version workflow with release workflow
- Retag ci images to <version> and latest on tag push (no rebuild)
- Move stable git tag only if all analyses/tests succeed and version is highest
- Make compose image/pull policy configurable via env

Replace inline tail logic in deploy workflows with a shared
scripts/ci/log-tail.sh helper that prints the last N lines of all
log files on failure.
This improves debuggability, avoids code duplication, and ensures
consistent log output across server, universal and workstation
pipelines.

- Rename _deploy-matrix.yml -> _deploy-per-app.yml and drop unused inputs
(tested_lifecycles, only_distro, final_exclude_re).
- Keep one runner per app (matrix.app) and run all distros inside that job.
- Makefile: run deploy tests through act workflow_dispatch (no serial script).
- Add scripts/ci/discover.sh and scripts/ci/deploy-one-app.sh as small SRP helpers.
- Update reusable workflow callers to use the renamed file.
