feat: add comprehensive CI pipeline with matrix testing and coverage

Add full CI workflow for Nimcheck with lint, test matrix across Nim versions, build, and coverage jobs. Introduce workflow_dispatch trigger, concurrency control, and shared environment variable for Nim version. Enhance job documentation with detailed comments explaining pipeline structure and purpose.

# Requires a Gitea act_runner with the "ubuntu-latest" label

# Triggers: push to main/develop, pull requests to main.

# Jobs:
# lint compilation check with strict hints/warnings
# test matrix across Nim versions; runs the full test suite
# build release-optimised binary (depends on lint + test)
# coverage instrumented test run (manual / main only)
