* ci: skip pytest smoke on documentation-only changes
Adding paths-ignore for **.md and docs/** so that PRs that touch only
markdown files do not trigger the full pytest suite. Runner minutes are
spent only when Python or config files change.
Closes#2646.
* ci: detect docs-only changes inside the job instead of paths-ignore
Previously paths-ignore on the pull_request trigger caused the entire
workflow to be skipped, which can leave required checks pending and block
merging. Instead, keep the workflow always-triggered and detect docs-only
changes inside python-tests with a git diff step; if every changed file
is a .md or docs/ path, the step reports success without running pytest.
The syntax jobs (python-syntax, node-syntax) are cheap enough to always run.

.github/workflows/ci.yml runs on push to main + PRs:
- python-syntax: compileall over app.py + core/routes/src/services/scripts/tests
- node-syntax: node --check on our JS (static/app.js + static/js)
- python-tests: pip install + pytest (continue-on-error for now)
Hardening: least-privilege `permissions: contents: read`, a `concurrency`
group that cancels superseded runs, and actions pinned to commit SHAs
(version in a comment) instead of mutable tags.
