Stale assignment recovered (GH#15060)

Previously assigned to: superdav42
Reason: no dispatch claim comment found, no recent activity
Threshold: 600s

The assigned runner had no active worker process and produced no progress within the threshold. Unassigned and relabeled status:available for re-dispatch.

This recovery prevents the orphaned-assignment deadlock where offline runners permanently block all dispatch.
