The action cache refresh fetched with `--prune` and the unqualified refspec `+<ref>:refs/runner/<hash>`. Git cannot map that ref back to a remote ref, so it deleted it on every other refresh. The first job after a branch or tag moved then failed with `cannot lock ref`, and a moved tag in a full clone could silently run its old commit. `--no-prune` fixes this and also overrides an inherited `fetch.prune`.

Adds a real-Gitea compatibility suite against stable and nightly to catch runner and API drift before release.
The suite shares one Gitea and regular runner, using repository runners only for cache v1/v2 and ephemeral behavior. It covers registration, payload and log encoding, secrets, variables, services, artifacts, outputs, matrices, cache, dispatch, live logs, cancellation, and ephemeral teardown.
CI runs both images in parallel. Warm local timings:
| Image | Before | After |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| `gitea/gitea:latest` | ~70s | 26.54s |
| `gitea/gitea:main-nightly` | ~54s | 22.53s |
The former serial matrix took about 2 minutes. Parallel suite execution is now bounded by the slower ~26.5-second variant.
