perl -c requires all modules to be loadable at compile time. PVE::SafeSyslog
only exists on Proxmox VE hosts, so the syntax check always failed on
GitHub Actions runners. Fix:
- Install real Perl deps via apt (libwww-perl, libio-socket-ssl-perl,
librest-client-perl, libjson-perl)
- Create a minimal stub for PVE::SafeSyslog so perl -c can load FreeNAS.pm
- Pass -I/tmp/pve-stub to perl -c so the stub is found

Unquoted YAML plain scalars cannot contain ': ' (colon-space) because
the parser interprets it as a nested key-value mapping. The two step
names 'Dry-run patch: ZFSPlugin (PVE 8)' and 'Dry-run patch: apidoc.js
(PVE 8)' triggered this, causing GitHub Actions to reject the workflow
file before any jobs ran.

Two bugs that prevented any jobs from running:
1. action.yml contained only YAML comments (no 'on:' or 'jobs:' keys),
making it an invalid workflow file. GitHub rejected it at parse time.
Fixed by giving it a minimal valid structure with workflow_dispatch
trigger only, so it never fires automatically.
2. build.yml perlcritic step referenced perl5/PVE/Storage/Custom/FreeNAS.pm
which is not committed to the repository, causing a step failure.
Removed — only FreeNAS.pm (LunCmd) is linted for now.
3. build.yml publish job used 'if: |' block scalar for a multi-line
expression, which GitHub Actions rejects in expression position.
Changed to a single inline expression string.
