Nicolas 6bdcb54828 feat: Enable jobs.<job_id>.timeout-minutes and jobs.<job_id>.continue-on-error (#1032)
Two `jobs.<job_id>` workflow syntax fields were parsed from YAML but silently ignored. This PR implements both:

- **`jobs.<job_id>.timeout-minutes`** — applies a context deadline around the entire job execution (container start, pre-steps, main steps, post-steps). Mirrors the existing step-level `evaluateStepTimeout`. Supports expression interpolation (e.g. `${{ env.MY_TIMEOUT }}`).

- **`jobs.<job_id>.continue-on-error`** — evaluates the expression when a job fails. If all failing matrix combinations had `continue-on-error: true`, the job does not cause the workflow run to fail (`handleFailure` skips it), and the tolerated failure reports `success` to dependent jobs through the `needs` context so jobs gated on the default `if: success()` still run (matching GitHub). The "any firm failure wins" rule is serialised under the existing per-job lock, so parallel matrix combinations are safe.

Both features follow the same patterns already used at the step level (`evaluateStepTimeout` / `isContinueOnError` in `act/runner/step.go`).

## Version compatibility

These changes are backward compatible. With mismatched versions the feature degrades silently to the previous behaviour (field ignored) — no errors on either side.

- `timeout-minutes`: runner-only, no server dependency.
- `continue-on-error`: requires both this runner PR and the matching Gitea server PR to take full effect. With only one side updated, the field continues to be ignored.
