Subject: [PATCH] ci: add zizmor static analysis for the workflows

Runs zizmor over .github/workflows and publishes results to the Security tab
via SARIF. Report-only for now (continue-on-error) since the existing
workflows still have findings to clear; a follow-up fixes those and turns this
into a hard gate. Answers the "do we have zizmor setup" question from the
review on #996.

Based this on jupyterlab's own zizmor workflow and put it together with Claude
Code, running zizmor against our workflows locally to confirm it works.
