fix(ci): keep CategoricalRelaxation forward bit-identical for the typical positive case

The previous defensive ``x.clamp(min=1e-8)`` before normalisation slightly
shifted the simplex output even when ``x`` was already safe, which was
enough to break ``test_smoke.py::test_coloring_cpu`` (K=2, 200 epochs) on
CI across Python 3.10 / 3.11 / 3.12. Guard *only* the denominator so the
typical case is identical to the historical implementation, and the
NaN/Inf failure mode (``x.sum`` ~ 0) is still defended against.

Also bump deprecated GitHub Actions to silence the Node.js 20 deprecation
warning in CI: ``actions/checkout@v4 -> v5``,
``astral-sh/setup-uv@v3 -> v8``.
