Gitea 1.21 refuses to run as root. The non-rootless image's
entrypoint switches to the git user, but kubectl exec still runs
as root, causing `gitea admin user create` to fail with:
"Gitea is not supposed to be run as root"
Switch to gitea/gitea:1.21-rootless which runs as UID 1000,
and mount emptyDir volumes at /var/lib/gitea and /etc/gitea.

- Add explicit API readiness check inside the pod before running
admin commands (readiness probe alone may pass before DB is ready)
- Split "Initialize Gitea" into separate steps for better failure
diagnostics: "Create Gitea admin user" and "Create test repository"

The `---` between the Deployment and Service was indented inside
the heredoc, so kubectl didn't recognize it as a document separator.
Split into two separate kubectl apply calls.

Replace the stub smoke test (which only verified CRD creation) with a
full end-to-end test that:
- Deploys Gitea as an in-cluster git server (emptyDir, auto-install)
- Initializes a test repository with an admin user and initial commit
- Creates GitRepository, GitBranch, and GitPushTransaction CRDs
- Verifies the push controller clones, pushes main to a new branch,
and transitions the transaction to Succeeded
- Verifies the controller updates the GitBranch CR's headCommit
- Verifies the new branch actually exists on the git server
Also fixes a bug in the push controller's resolveAuth: Secret data
values are base64-encoded when accessed via the dynamic client, but
were being used directly without decoding, causing authentication
failures.

Two jobs:
- build: compiles all controller binaries and runs go vet
- e2e: spins up KinD cluster with Knative via chainguard-dev/actions,
deploys CRDs and controllers with ko, verifies rollout, runs
smoke test creating a GitRepository CR. On failure, collects
kind-diag diagnostics as artifacts.
