feat(actions-runner): bake in headless Chromium libs for Playwright suites - #4

…uites Playwright workflows on ARC runners fail at `playwright install --with-deps`: it escalates to root to apt-install Chromium's system libraries, and this image is rootless with no sudo (su: Authentication failure). Baking the libraries in lets workflows run a plain `playwright install chromium` as the runner user. The package list is Playwright 1.62.0's nativeDeps for ubuntu24.04 (identical on arm64), minus xvfb and the xfonts-* server fonts that only headed X11 mode needs. The font packages stay so screenshot suites render emoji and CJK text instead of tofu boxes. Signed-off-by: swibrow <15628653+swibrow@users.noreply.github.com>

… pool (#1896) * chore(arc): garrison runner image 2.336.0-2 with Playwright chromium libs Same upstream runner; the revision bakes in headless Chromium's system libraries (cloudsnacks/containers#4) so garrison's wartable-ui job can run `playwright install chromium` without root. Manual bump: renovate deliberately doesn't track the -N revision suffix on this image. Signed-off-by: swibrow <15628653+swibrow@users.noreply.github.com> * chore(arc): scale the garrison runners and take the mise toolchain image garrison's ci fans out further than the shared default of two runners can absorb: a main push wants the five gates plus a keep and a runner image build at once. On run 30489535961 that queued 56 aggregate minutes against 24 minutes of work, with build (keep) waiting 22m54 for a slot. maxRunners 6 gives the split gates somewhere to go, and minRunners 1 keeps one warm so the ~10 minute ARC cold start stops landing on the front of every run — it was 12m08 before gates even started. The image bump to 2.336.0-3 picks up the mise-managed CLI toolchain (gh, yq, hadolint, shellcheck), which is what lets garrison's deploy-pitower job drop the yq and gh it was curling into RUNNER_TEMP. Land that image first: the tag has to exist before the scale set rolls.
