Subject: [PATCH] fix(ci): use docker:// runner mode with pre-built SDK images

Switch CI jobs to container: image: overrides so jobs run inside official
SDK containers (dotnet/sdk:10.0, node:20-alpine) instead of the bare
runner container. This bypasses blocked CDN downloads for dotnet/node.

Deploy job stays on self-hosted:host where Docker CLI is available.
Update workflow comments to explain the required runner label config:
  ubuntu-latest:docker://node:20-alpine (CI jobs)
  self-hosted:host (deploy)
