Add CI workflow with smoke tests for installer scripts in Docker containers

[Copilot]

• Analyze repository structure and installer scripts
• Create CI workflow file with:
  • Smoke tests that run installer scripts inside Ubuntu 24.04 Docker containers
  • Non-root user (testuser) inside containers
  • Docker-in-Docker support for software installer/upgrade scripts
  • --privileged flag to fix Docker permission issues
  • Clean Ubuntu 24.04 environment avoiding GitHub Runner customizations
  • Updated actions/checkout to v5
  • Runs on pull_request and push events to main branch only
  • Explicit permissions (contents: read) for security
• Run CodeQL security check (no vulnerabilities)
• Commit and push updated CI workflow

• Rework the job. Use smoke tests, not lint.
• Target branch name “master” is unnecessary.
• The .gitignore file is unnecessary.

• Target branch name “master” is unnecessary....

Done. The workflow now uses smoke tests (bash -n for shell scripts, py_compile for Python), targets only main branch, and .gitignore has been removed. Changes in commit: reworked CI workflow with syntax validation smoke tests.

• The smoke test job simply needs to run the Software installer (install/upgrade) and dotfiles installer. (See README.md)
• Update the version in actions/checkout to v5.

Done. The smoke test now runs the software installer (install.sh, upgrade.sh) and dotfiles installer as specified in README.md. Also updated actions/checkout to v5. Changes in commit 0e2b05e.

Run Software installer/upgrade and Dotfiles installer inside a non-root Ubuntu 24.04 Docker container with Docker available inside.
GitHub Runner’s customized Ubuntu 24.04 environment causes these scripts to fail.

Done. The workflow now runs the software installer/upgrade and dotfiles installer inside a non-root Ubuntu 24.04 Docker container. Docker-in-Docker is available for the installer scripts via mounted Docker socket. Changes in commit f3a9e12.

Fixed. Added --privileged flag to the Docker containers for software installer and upgrade steps to resolve permission issues. Changes in commit 9c3f7b8.
