`actions/checkout@v4` is a JavaScript action — it expects `node` on
PATH in the runner image. Gitea Actions (and local `act`) running
against `ubuntu:24.04` had neither node nor git pre-installed, so
checkout failed with:
❌ Failure - Main actions/checkout@v4
exitcode '127': command not found
The pre-step now installs nodejs + git + ca-certificates from apt
before checkout runs. The rest of the C++ toolchain installs in a
second step after the source tree is on disk.
Doesn't affect GitHub-hosted runners (their images already have node);
doesn't change build behaviour either.

Gitea Actions workflow at .gitea/workflows/ci.yml. Spins up an
ubuntu:24.04 container, installs the same apt deps the Dockerfile uses
(build-essential, cmake, ninja-build, libasio-dev, libyaml-cpp-dev,
python3, python3-yaml), checks out, runs cmake + ninja, and executes
the doctest binary.
Runs the same toolchain as the local Docker setup; no docker-in-docker
required.
