What

Adds a no_promote input to the reusable downgrade.yml, passed through to julia-actions/julia-downgrade-compat, defaulting to Mooncake.

no_promote keeps the named weakdep extensions as weakdeps during merged downgrade resolution instead of promoting them into the joint floor-resolve (they install at latest, are never force-min-resolved). Mooncake is the fleet-wide culprit: its dependency graph cannot be --min-resolved by Resolver.jl (StefanKarpinski/Resolver.jl#24 — Pkg resolves the identical graph fine), and the merged resolve is registry-fragile. Skipping just Mooncake's promotion greens the Downgrade lane fleet-wide while every other weakdep extension is still promoted and floor-tested together — the most conservative fix.

Callers can override: add more backends (e.g. Reactant), or set no_promote: "" to floor-check Mooncake in a repo where its graph happens to resolve.

Ready — dependency satisfied

julia-actions/julia-downgrade-compat#52 (which adds the no_promote action input) is merged and released as v2.6.0, and the moving v2 tag now points to it (3cae9054), so julia-downgrade-compat@v2 used here already understands no_promote. Merging this activates the fleet default immediately.

Ready for review by @ChrisRackauckas.

…or-check)

Adds a `no_promote` input (passed to julia-actions/julia-downgrade-compat) that
keeps named weakdep extensions as weakdeps instead of floor-checking them.
Defaults to `Mooncake`, whose dependency graph Resolver.jl cannot --min-resolve
(StefanKarpinski/Resolver.jl#24) and which is registry-fragile, so its floor-check
is skipped fleet-wide while every other weakdep extension is still floor-checked.
Callers can override (e.g. add Reactant, or set empty to floor-check Mooncake).

NOTE: inert until julia-actions/julia-downgrade-compat#52 (which adds the
`no_promote` action input) merges and v2 is retagged; the currently-released v2
ignores the unknown `with:` key, so this is safe to land ahead of that.
