chore: unblock entire CI/CD pipeline - fix all critical blockers

- Fixed github.head_ref actionlint error by passing via environment variable
  instead of direct shell interpolation in ci-pipeline.yml
- Aligned E2E coverage artifact handling to shard artifacts and updated
  Codecov upload to use glob pattern for multi-shard merge
- Added workflow_run trigger to security-pr.yml for docker-build integration
  while retaining workflow_dispatch for manual runs
- Added workflow_run trigger to supply-chain-pr.yml for docker-build integration
  while retaining workflow_dispatch for manual runs
- All individual workflows now support both automatic (workflow_run) and manual
  (workflow_dispatch) triggering, maintaining design intent
- Audited remaining workflows; no additional blockers found
- All actionlint and pre-commit validations now passing
- Full pipeline trigger chain now functional
