Reviewed head a8dce30f3bffd01e64916d3ae000d705323bce25.

This is a confirmed security update. actions/checkout@v7.0.1
resolves to the valid-signed upstream commit
3d3c42e5aac5ba805825da76410c181273ba90b1. The update adds
privileged fork-checkout guards, tightens credential cleanup, and reduces
the audited production dependency graph from six findings (including one
high-severity finding) to zero. I found no unexpected expansion of
credential, network, filesystem, process, LFS, or submodule behavior.

The PR updates all ten checkout call sites. Exact-head CI exercised checkout
and its post-job cleanup successfully across the Go, JS, release, and public
image jobs. The Pro image failure occurs later, when Dependabot cannot assume
the AWS role with OIDC, and is unrelated to checkout v7.

Residual risk is limited to the mutable major tag and the usual gap from
reviewing the committed bundle without independently rebuilding it.
