Workflow file for this run

# Test Nix — evaluates the flake and builds the installer AND appliance ISOs
# for every supported architecture.
#
# A `flake` job runs `nix flake check` (cheap, builds nothing) so Nix typos /
# bad references / type errors surface fast; the matrix build jobs then realise
# (or, drv-only, just instantiate) the images.
#
# Nix is installed natively on each runner (DeterminateSystems/nix-installer-
# action) rather than run from the `nixos/nix` container — that container lacks
# a standard glibc loader, so GitHub's bundled Node couldn't run there and JS
# actions failed; installing on the host avoids that entirely and, crucially,
# lets us cache the /nix/store across runs (nix-community/cache-nix-action,
# backed by the GitHub Actions cache). Each arch builds on its own native
# runner, so `make <kind>/iso` resolves to the runner's native
# `builtins.currentSystem`.
#
# Triggers / what gets built per kind:
# * push to main → drv-only: just instantiate each kind's
# derivation (cheap validation, no image). A full ISO build on every main
# commit is expensive and unnecessary; releases (tags) and manual runs
# still produce real images.
# * workflow_dispatch → always build both full ISOs (manual,
# on-demand image build).
# * pull_request → realise a kind's full ISO only when the
# PR is ready-for-review (non-draft) AND its label (test-installer-iso /
# test-appliance-iso) is applied; otherwise (draft, or no label) that kind
# is just instantiated (.drv, cheap validation, no image). The `labeled`
# trigger means adding the label kicks off the full build.
# A tiny `plan` job computes the per-kind plan once and a short title fragment
# so the build job's name stays readable. The build job always runs (drafts just
# do derivations). Verification artifacts are short-lived (1 day).

# `ready_for_review` a draft promoted to ready, `labeled` so applying a
# test-*-iso label starts the full build, and `synchronize` so pushing new
# commits re-runs the build — re-evaluating the labels so a labelled kind
# is re-built (not just its derivation) on every commit.

# references / type errors in seconds. The per-kind ISO derivations are
# instantiated separately by the `Images` job below (its drv-only path), so
# this covers the flake outputs that path doesn't touch.
