[q] feat(api-consumption-report): render charts as inline markdown images

[github-actions]

Fixes the chart display in the daily API consumption report discussion (see discussion #26107).

What changed

Problem: Charts were embedded as plain artifact download links:

📎 **[Chart: GitHub API Calls Trend](...)** — artifact `{api_calls_trend_aw_id}`

These require the reader to navigate to the Actions run and manually download the PNG files.

Fix: Use upload_artifact with a temporary_id and the #aw_ID substitution syntax, so each chart renders as a real inline markdown image:

![GitHub API Calls Trend](#aw_api_trend)

The safe-outputs processor replaces #aw_api_trend with the actual artifact download URL. Because skip-archive: true is already configured in the workflow frontmatter, the URL points directly to the PNG file and is suitable for inline images.

Changes

.github/workflows/api-consumption-report.md

Step 5 — each upload_artifact call now specifies a temporary_id:

Chart file	temporary_id
api_calls_trend.png	aw_api_trend
workflow_api_trend.png	aw_wf_trend
api_heatmap.png	aw_heatmap
api_burners_donut.png	aw_donut
api_by_workflow.png	aw_by_wf

Step 6 — chart sections in the discussion body template now use ![alt](#aw_ID) instead of the 📎 **[Chart: ...]** — artifact ... link format.
