ci: dependabot stays hosted under failover; runbook matches shipped bounds

- All four failover selectors (three workers + the verdict job) and the
  paired env/cache expressions now exclude dependabot[bot]: under
  failover, dependency-supplied code keeps queueing for the hosted pool
  instead of executing on the persistent VM. A delayed Dependabot PR
  during an outage is an acceptable cost; dependency code on the
  privileged host is not.
- Runbook (both languages): records the shipped failover bounds
  (coverage 8, snapshots 12, sized for six instances) and documents
  that the verdict job follows the selector too — operators previously
  had no explanation for a verdict queued after all workers passed.
- Local static gate green: 32 passed, 0 failed (translation pairing
  519 pairs consistent).

## Problem
The three required Linux jobs in [CI](../../../../.github/workflows/ci.yml) (`node 24 / static`, `node 24 / coverage`, `node 24 / snapshots and artifacts`) run on the hosted enterprise 32-core pools. When those pools degrade — jobs queue indefinitely, the enterprise labels vanish, or GitHub-side capacity fails — every open pull request becomes unmergeable, and the ordinary recovery of merging a fix is itself deadlocked behind the very required checks that cannot run. An outage therefore needs a switch a repository admin can throw without merging anything.
The three required Linux worker jobs in [CI](../../../../.github/workflows/ci.yml) (`node 24 / static`, `node 24 / coverage`, `node 24 / snapshots and artifacts`) and the required verdict job that aggregates them (`all checks passed`) run on the hosted enterprise 32-core pools.

An outage therefore needs a switch a repository admin can throw without merging anything.
## Decision
Each of the three required Linux jobs resolves its runner pool through the `DSH_CI_FAILOVER` repository variable. Unset (normal), they run on the hosted enterprise pools. Set to `selfhosted` by a repository admin, all three retarget onto the in-house self-hosted `vm-backup` pool, coverage and snapshot concurrency drop to shared-VM bounds, and the hosted-path pnpm cache restores are skipped. The switch is admin-only repository state, not a merge, so it works while every check is red. The in-house pool's readiness is continuously re-proven by the `serial / linux (self-hosted standby)` lane, which runs the complete unsharded aggregate on every master push.

2. Retrigger the required jobs so they re-resolve their pool. Jobs already **queued** for the hosted labels do not retarget and cannot be re-run in place, so for the documented indefinite-queue outage, cancel the stuck run and re-run all jobs, or push a new commit; "Re-run failed jobs" only helps once a job has actually failed rather than queued.

## 决策
三个必需的 Linux 作业各自通过仓库变量 `DSH_CI_FAILOVER` 解析运行器池。变量不存在(正常)时它们运行在托管企业池上;由仓库管理员设为 `selfhosted` 时,者全部切换到公司自有的自托管 `vm-backup` 池,coverage 与 snapshot 的并发降到共享虚拟机上限,并跳过托管路径的 pnpm 缓存恢复。这个开关是仅限管理员的仓库状态而非一次合并,因此在所有检查都是红色时仍然有效。自有池的就绪状态由 `serial / linux (self-hosted standby)` 通道持续验证——每次 master 推送都在其上运行完整的未分片聚合流程。
