fix(ci): run selected jobs after skipped policy checks

[f0rr0]

Selected-product qualification can intentionally skip the Policy matrix. Nine downstream jobs still used GitHub's implicit success() condition, which propagates that skip through the ancestor chain even after the source gates and actual producers succeed. Qualification run 37420502874 consequently skipped required WASIX, native/mobile packaging and E2E jobs, and publication stopped before assembly.

Override the implicit status check in those nine conditions while explicitly requiring every direct producer to succeed. Preserve selection predicates, dependency edges and the strict Builds, E2E, Required and Qualified gates. Extend the existing parsed-workflow contract to reject downstream conditions that inherit optional source skips. GitHub documents the default status check.

Validation:

• bash tools/ci/check-workflows.sh passed, including pinned actionlint/zizmor and all workflow/planner/transfer tests.
• The added regression check failed against the original workflow and passed after the fix.
• A local replay using the failed run's actual plan reproduced all nine original skips; the fixed expressions admit successful producers and reject skipped, failed or cancelled prerequisites, failed Policy, run cancellation and unselected work. This replay does not replace hosted qualification.
• Biome and git diff --check passed.

After merge, qualify the exact main commit and then publish the seven versions from pending release PR #250. Rerunning the old SHA cannot apply this workflow fix.
