Subject: [PATCH] ci: run only Checkstyle in the merge queue; make AMD/Intel
 manual-only (#1515)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

The AMD and Intel GPU runners are currently unavailable, so those CI
jobs fail whenever they run — including inside the **merge queue**,
which blocks all merges for some time. This PR makes the merge queue run
**only Checkstyle** for now.

## Change

Reduce the **AMD GPU** and **Intel GPU** workflow triggers to
`workflow_dispatch` only, mirroring the **NVIDIA GPU** workflow's `on:`
(manual trigger) **minus the schedule** — we don't maintain a schedule
for AMD/Intel.

This removes their `push`, `pull_request`, and `merge_group` triggers,
so:

- **Only Checkstyle runs in the merge queue** (it keeps its
`merge_group` trigger).
- AMD/Intel no longer run automatically on PRs or pushes.
- AMD/Intel can still be launched on demand via the Actions **"Run
workflow"** button once the runners are healthy again.

`checkstyle.yml` is unchanged.

## Notes

- Observed (not changed here): `merge-queue-failure.yml` listens for the
**NVIDIA GPU** workflow with `event == 'merge_group'`, but NVIDIA GPU
has no `merge_group` trigger, so that handler is currently a no-op. Can
be addressed separately.
