Niels Lohmann 899cf31255 Harden CI: validate PR artifact inputs, migrate off deprecated Semgrep action (#5232)
* Harden CI workflows: validate PR artifact inputs and migrate off deprecated Semgrep action

Address two CI/supply-chain hardening items from the 2026-07-03 security
audit:

- comment_check_amalgamation.yml (todo 117): the privileged `workflow_run`
  job consumes an untrusted PR artifact. Validate `author` against a strict
  GitHub-username pattern and `number` as a positive integer before use, and
  extract the artifact into a dedicated directory (`unzip -o pr.zip -d
  ./pr_artifact`), reading only the two expected files by fixed path. This
  prevents Markdown/mention injection via the attacker-controlled `author`
  text and avoids a malicious archive touching the workspace.

- semgrep.yml (todo 118): `returntocorp/semgrep-action` is deprecated (the
  org was renamed to `semgrep/*`). Replace it with an explicit `semgrep ci`
  invocation via the maintained CLI; the deployment is inferred from
  SEMGREP_APP_TOKEN.

Todo 116 (CIFuzz `@master` refs) already carries a comment documenting the
OSS-Fuzz-recommended exception, so no change is needed there.

* Fix Semgrep step: use `semgrep scan` instead of token-gated `semgrep ci`

The CI `Scan` job failed with "Path does not exist: semgrep.sarif" because
`semgrep ci` requires a login token (SEMGREP_APP_TOKEN), which this repo does
not have configured, so it bailed without producing a SARIF file. The former
returntocorp/semgrep-action, given no token, fell back to plain
`semgrep scan --sarif`; match that with `semgrep scan --config auto`, which
needs no token and always produces the SARIF for upload.

# The former returntocorp/semgrep-action is deprecated (the org was renamed

# login token): with no SEMGREP_APP_TOKEN configured this is exactly what
# the old action fell back to, running community rules with no token.
# SEMGREP_APP_TOKEN is still passed through so registry auth works if a
