Add additive global footers to safe-output bodies

[Copilot]

Adds safe-outputs.body-footer for appending shared content to every safe output that produces a body. Footers compose across imported workflows and handler-specific configuration while remaining independent of generated attribution footers.

Changes

• Configuration

  • Adds top-level body-footer schema, parsing, and documentation.
  • Supports {workflow_name} and {run_url} placeholders.

• Composition

  • Preserves the main workflow footer followed by imported footers in import order.
  • Appends handler-specific footers before global footers.
  • Separates configured footers with blank lines.

• Coverage

  • Applies footers across GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, comments, reviews, releases, and comment memory.
  • Covers body-producing Linear, Jira, Azure DevOps, project-status, and agent-session outputs.
  • Keeps configured footers active when generated attribution footers are disabled.

safe-outputs:
  footer: false
  body-footer: |
    Generated for [{workflow_name}]({run_url})
  create-issue:
    body-footer: |
      Issue-specific context

The deleted action lock breaks an existing test, while some handlers omit footers or can exceed provider body limits.

@copilot merge main, recompile and fix https://github.com/github/gh-aw/actions/runs/34610222487/job/103299221118?pr=60275

Done in fb9e0ed.

• main (3aba3a1) is merged into the branch (merge commit a553a38); no conflicts.
• Recompiled all 299 workflows — no .lock.yml drift.
• Fixed the failing job: impacted-js-tests / js-typecheck was failing on memory_custom_validation.cjs(53,40) TS2769 — fs.readFileSync(targetPath, encoding) with encoding typed as BufferEncoding | undefined matches no overload. readFile now calls the single-argument overload when encoding is undefined. npm run typecheck is clean.

Local validation: make fmt, make lint, make test-unit, make recompile, and the memory/push-repo-memory JS tests all pass.
