Actions Runner

Expanded commit hash regex to support SHA-256 (64-character) hashes. Added support for Ubuntu 26.04 with updated libraries (liblttng-ust1t64, libicu77-80). Includes background step execution engine infrastructure, debugger console improvements, and updated dependencies including Docker v29.5.2, .NET SDK 8.0.421, and Node versions.

Background step execution engine infrastructure is now in place, enabling deferred step control and execution within job containers. Added support for Ubuntu 26.04 with required libraries (liblttng-ust1t64, libicu77-80), expanded commit hash regex to support SHA-256 hashes, and fixed action download 403 errors to no longer retry.
