feat(linter): propagate workflow:rules:variables: into job rule evaluation

workflow:rules: can define variables: on matching rules (GitLab CI 15.0+).
These variables are now injected into the evaluation context before job
rules:if: expressions are evaluated, making patterns like:

  workflow:
    rules:
      - if: '$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == "main"'
        variables:
          DEPLOY_TARGET: production
  deploy:
    rules:
      - if: '$DEPLOY_TARGET == "production"'

work correctly with glint check --branch main.

Changes:
- model.Rule: add Variables map[string]any field (yaml:"variables")
- cicontext.Context: add pinned map tracking which vars must not be
  overwritten; New() pins all shortcut and --var variables; add
  Inject(key, value) which writes only when key is not pinned
- cicontext.ExtractStringVars: shared helper that converts map[string]any
  variable blocks (plain string or {value:...} form) to map[string]string
- cicontext.EvalWorkflow: returns (bool, map[string]string) — the vars of
  the matching workflow rule alongside the runs/no-runs result
- cmd/glint/main.go: enrichContext() injects pipeline-level variable
  defaults then workflow-rule variables before printContext; applied in
  both cmdCheck and cmdGraph

Injection priority (highest wins):
  --var CLI overrides > --branch/--tag/--source shortcuts
  > workflow-rule variables > pipeline variables: defaults

Adds 15 unit tests (TestEvalWorkflow, TestContextInject,
TestExtractStringVars, TestWorkflowVarsJobEval) and a testdata fixture
(workflow_vars.yml) validated across four branch contexts.
