fix(ci): resolve npm audit gate and Scorecard external-failure gate

- npm audit: ran npm audit fix (non-forcing) to clear esbuild/vite/js-yaml
  transitive high/moderate vulns. All bumps stayed within the same major
  (esbuild 0.28.0 -> 0.28.1, vite 8.0.14 -> 8.1.4, js-yaml 4.1.1 -> 4.3.0).
  npm audit --audit-level=high now exits 0. package-lock.json updated.
- scorecard.yml: set publish_results: false on the Run Scorecard step to
  remove the public Sigstore/Fulcio/TUF results-signing dependency, and
  added continue-on-error: true so a transient GitHub code-search 429
  no longer reddens CI. SARIF upload and artifact upload steps untouched.
