codeql database finalize was exiting 32 on every run:

CodeQL could not process any code written in JavaScript/TypeScript.

The matrix asserted javascript-typescript; this repository's languages are rust. One codeql.yml was copied estate-wide with a hard-coded JS matrix — 82 repositories carry it, and 17 of the 18 sampled have no JavaScript at all (Julia, Rust, Zig, Agda, Ada, Haskell, Elixir).

This is not only a failing check. The crash uploads no SARIF, so a code_scanning ruleset rule requiring CodeQL waits forever on "Code scanning is waiting for results from CodeQL". One fault, two symptoms — and relaxing the rule's thresholds could not have helped, because no results arrive at all.

actions is kept (or added): it is valid in every repository, since every repository has workflow files, and it keeps this workflow producing a check and a SARIF upload even where CodeQL can analyse nothing else.

`codeql database finalize` was exiting 32 on every run:

    CodeQL could not process any code written in JavaScript/TypeScript.

The matrix asserted javascript-typescript, which this repository does not contain.
Its languages are: rust.

This is not only a failing check. The crash uploads no SARIF, so a
`code_scanning` ruleset rule requiring CodeQL waits forever on "Code scanning
is waiting for results from CodeQL" — one fault, two symptoms. Relaxing the
rule's thresholds could not have helped, because no results arrive at all.

New matrix: actions, rust. `actions` is valid in every repository (every
repository has workflow files) and keeps this workflow producing a check and a
SARIF upload even where CodeQL can analyse nothing else — most of this estate
is written in languages CodeQL does not support.
