A batch of small, self-contained fixes and docs/example additions.
Fixes#625 - align the example config's `force_pull` with the actual default (`false`)
Fixes#804 - return an error instead of discarding `os.UserHomeDir()` when defaulting `cache.dir`/`host.workdir_parent`
Fixes#571 - send a `gitea-runner/<version>` User-Agent on API requests
Fixes#650 - detect an `Unauthenticated` fetch response and exit the daemon with an error instead of retrying forever
Fixes#766 - add `exec --eventpath` to supply a JSON event payload file
Fixes#256 - add a `bug-report` subcommand that prints version/Go/OS-arch/CPU info
Fixes#617 - add `runner.set_act_env` (default `true`) to optionally omit the `ACT=true` env var
Fixes#635 - record a failure result (and guard a nil reusable-workflow caller) when the job `if`-expression fails to evaluate
Fixes#1005 - remove README docs for config env-var overrides that were already removed from the code
Fixes#448 - clarify in `exec --job` help that `--workflows` may be needed to disambiguate
Fixes#209 - note that `host`-labelled runners still need Docker for `docker://` actions and service containers
Fixes#757 - add a systemd service example with automatic restart
Fixes#474 - add a Kubernetes StatefulSet example that persists the `.runner` registration across reschedules
Fixes#776 - build the basic (non-dind) docker image for `linux/riscv64`
Fixes#628 - build the basic (non-dind) docker image for `linux/s390x`Reviewed-on: https://gitea.com/gitea/runner/pulls/1075

## Summary
- Add `DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_NET=slirp4netns` and `DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_MTU=65520` to the DIND docker-compose example
- The `docker:dind-rootless` base image defaults to vpnkit as the network driver, which has substantially lower throughput than slirp4netns
## The problem
I noticed that pulling containers as well as downloading data within the container when running act_runner as DIND was very slow (see Ookla speedtest results in the following). While analysing the issue, I found that this was caused by the usage of vpnkit.
The `docker:dind-rootless` base image defaults to vpnkit as the network driver. slirp4netns was [added as an opt-in option](https://github.com/docker-library/docker/pull/543) and must be explicitly enabled via `DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_NET=slirp4netns`.
This means anyone following the current DIND example gets vpnkit, which has significantly lower network throughput. This affects **all** network operations in the container — image pulls, package installs, and CI tasks.
Per the [rootlesskit iperf3 benchmarks](https://github.com/rootless-containers/rootlesskit/blob/master/docs/network.md):
| Driver | MTU 1500 | MTU 65520 |
|--------|----------|-----------|
| **vpnkit** | 0.60 Gbps | not supported |
| **slirp4netns** | 1.06 Gbps | 7.55 Gbps |
## Real-world benchmark results (Ookla speedtest, same server)
| | Download | Upload |
|---|---|---|
| **Default (vpnkit)** | ~130 Mbps | ~126 Mbps |
| **slirp4netns + MTU 65520** | ~958 Mbps | ~462 Mbps |
