The real breaking change in v7 is
actions/checkout#2454: checkout
now refuses to check out a fork PR's head under pull_request_target or
workflow_run. That is the one thing worth verifying here, since it turns a
working workflow into a hard failure rather than a warning.

Nothing in this repository trips it:

  • No workflow uses pull_request_target at all.
  • The one workflow_run consumer is conda-publish.yml, and it is scoped
    branches: [main]. Its github.event.workflow_run.head_sha is therefore
    always a commit on main, never a fork PR head, so the new refusal has no
    case to fire on.
  • ci.yml triggers on pull_request, not _target, which is unaffected.

The Node 24 runtime needs runner v2.327.1+; every runs-on: here is
GitHub-hosted (ubuntu-latest, plus ubuntu-24.04-arm in the
devcontainer-prebuild matrix), so the runner is current by construction. No
self-hosted runner to strand.

Worth noting this bump does more than the title says: the review job in
ci.yml was still on @v4 while everything else had moved to @v6, and
Dependabot has brought the whole set to @v7. That clears the Node 20
deprecation warning that job has been emitting.

Green on this head across ci, e2e, packaging, public-api, rust and
rust-coverage, which is most of the changed call sites actually executing.
