Joseph Doherty b604fed72b docs(TST-30): document shared-runner CI bottleneck + second-runner operator runbook
Doc half of TST-30 (single shared Gitea runner is a CI throughput/availability
bottleneck): docs/GatewayTesting.md's Continuous Integration section gains a
"Runner capacity is shared and finite" subsection covering the maxParallel=1
instance-level runner shared with dohertj2/lmxopcua, the ~20-30 min queue
latency observed under cross-repo contention, and Gitea 1.26's missing run
cancel/delete API. The existing "windev tier down" degraded-mode paragraph now
also covers "runner contended" as a reason to bypass the queue via
CI_SHA=<sha> scripts/ci/run-windev-ci.sh <mode> or the manual windev worktree
flow, generalizing it per the finding's design note.

New operator runbook docs/runbooks/TST-30-second-ci-runner.md carries the
actual runner registration (option a: second act_runner instance on
10.100.0.35 with the same container.network: traefik config, recommended;
option b: dedicated labelled runner, escalation only; option c: runner on
windev, rejected) plus verification steps and the no-cancel caveat. The
optional workflow-level concurrency group is documented as unverified --
framed as "verify before relying on it" -- and left unimplemented in ci.yml,
since registering the runner and any runs-on gating is operator/infra work
outside this repo's tree.

Tracking: TST-30 -> Done (doc half; runner registration operator-pending) in
both registers + change-log row.
