- actions/checkout: v6.0.2 -> v7.0.1 - actions/setup-go: v6.3.0 -> v7.0.0 - codecov/codecov-action: v5.5.3 -> v7.0.0 - codespell: 2.3.0 -> 2.4.3 The action bumps are major releases, but the only user-visible change is the move to node24 (and ESM), which all the runners we use support.

Let dependabot keep the pinned action digests (and their version comments) up to date, so they do not get stale again. Grouped into a single PR to avoid the noise; Go modules are not included as those are maintained manually. Signed-off-by: Kir Kolyshkin <kolyshkin@gmail.com>
By default actions/checkout leaves the GITHUB_TOKEN in the local git config, where any later step (or anything that archives the workspace) can pick it up. Nothing here pushes back to the repository, so turn it off, as suggested by zizmor's "artipacked" audit. Signed-off-by: Kir Kolyshkin <kolyshkin@gmail.com>
Add a job running zizmor, a static analyzer for GitHub Actions workflows, to catch common CI misconfigurations and security issues (such as the credential persistence fixed in the previous commit). Signed-off-by: Kir Kolyshkin <kolyshkin@gmail.com>

Add a workflow running actionlint, a static checker for GitHub Actions workflow files. It complements zizmor: where zizmor looks for security issues, actionlint validates the workflow syntax itself, the expressions and the runner labels, and runs shellcheck over the run: scripts.

Ubuntu 26.04 runners are still in public preview, but let's start testing on them early. As actionlint does not know about the ubuntu-26.04 runner label yet, add an actionlint config declaring it, to be removed once a release with the label lands. Signed-off-by: Kir Kolyshkin <kolyshkin@gmail.com>

🟡 Changes recommended
The codespell pip install pin uses an invalid v-prefixed version spec (codespell==v2.4.3), which is likely to break the codespell job.

Bumps:
actions/checkout: v6.0.2 → v7.0.1actions/setup-go: v6.3.0 → v7.0.0codecov/codecov-action: v5.5.3 → v7.0.0codespell: 2.3.0 → 2.4.3All three action bumps are major releases, but the only user-visible change is the move to node24 (and ESM); all runners in our matrix support it.
Dependabot: adds
.github/dependabot.ymlfor thegithub-actionsecosystem so the pinned digests (and their version comments) stop going stale. Updates are grouped into a single weekly PR with a 7-day cooldown. Go modules are deliberately left out — those are maintained by hand.Hardening: sets
persist-credentials: falseon bothactions/checkoutsteps; nothing in this workflow pushes back to the repo.zizmor: adds a job running zizmor, a static analyzer for GitHub Actions workflows, so this kind of thing gets caught automatically from now on. Findings are reported as workflow annotations rather than uploaded to the security tab, so it needs no extra permissions.
actionlint: adds a separate workflow running actionlint, which validates the workflow syntax, expressions and runner labels, and runs shellcheck over the
run:scripts.ubuntu-26.04: added to the test matrix. Those runners are still in public preview; all jobs pass on them. actionlint does not know the label yet, so
.github/actionlint.yamldeclares it — to be dropped once an actionlint release includes it.
