bircni 27e9b4de87 fix!: use the git CLI for action clones and make builtin:checkout match actions/checkout (#1277)
The runner now uses the `git` command line instead of go-git to download actions and reusable workflows. go-git had recurring bugs and does not support SHA-256 repositories, and full clones of actions are several times faster.

`builtin:checkout` now runs `git` where the job runs and behaves like `actions/checkout`:

1. A branch is checked out as a local branch tracking `origin`, tag and pull request runs keep their ref, and a triggering tag that moved fails the step.
1. Later steps can fetch and push with the persisted token or SSH key.
1. It supports the `ssh-*`, `lfs`, `submodules`, `sparse-checkout`, `filter`, `fetch-tags`, `clean`, `persist-credentials`, `show-progress` and `set-safe-directory` inputs and the `ref` and `commit` outputs.
1. SHA-256 repositories work for actions, reusable workflows and `builtin:checkout`.

Git keeps the token off its command line, ignores `GIT_DIR` and similar variables inherited by the runner, and keeps action files LF regardless of `core.autocrlf`. A cancelled job lets git remove its lock files.

This is a breaking change: the runner needs Git 2.34.1 or newer on its `PATH`, and so do job images that use `builtin:checkout`. The official runner images include it.
