fix(ci): use GITHUB_EVENT_BEFORE env var in detect-changes push job

mc#917 root fix.

Gitea Actions does not expose github.event.before as a ${{ }} template
expression that resolves in shell scripts for push events — it silently
becomes an empty string. This caused `git cat-file -e ""` to hang
indefinitely on some runner configurations (10m timeout was masking the
failure via continue-on-error: true).

Fix: use GITHUB_EVENT_BEFORE env var (set by the runner for push
events) instead of the broken template expression. Also guard both
`git cat-file -e` calls with `timeout 30` to prevent future hangs if
BASE is ever malformed.
