CodeQL is configured with `languages: actions`, so it only scans the GitHub Actions workflow files under `.github/`. It currently runs on every push and PR regardless of what changed, plus a weekly schedule. Gate the push and pull_request triggers to `.github/**` so it only re-analyzes when there is actually something new to analyze. The weekly schedule is unchanged and keeps base-line coverage even if no workflow file has changed.

Rationale for this change
The CodeQL workflow is configured with
languages: actions, so it only scans the GitHub Actions workflow files under.github/. It currently fires on every push and PR regardless of what changed, which means it re-analyzes the same set of workflow files for unrelated Rust, doc, or Python changes. The weekly schedule already guarantees baseline coverage even when nothing in.github/has been touched.What changes are included in this PR?
