Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Enhanced GitHub Actions workflows to improve CI/CD pipeline reliability. Added explicit repository checkout steps to path-filtering jobs in multiple workflows, ensuring repository contents are available before filtering operations execute.

Walkthrough

Added explicit actions/checkout@v6 steps to GitHub workflow jobs before running dorny/paths-filter@v4 in two workflow files. This ensures repository contents are available when executing path-filtering logic without modifying job conditions or control flow.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Workflow path-filtering setup .github/workflows/coverage.yml	Added actions/checkout@v6 step before dorny/paths-filter@v4 to ensure repository contents are available for path predicates.
Workflow path-filtering setup .github/workflows/docs-required-override.yml	Added actions/checkout@v6 steps to both changes-docs and changes-not-docs jobs before dorny/paths-filter@v4 steps.
