Pull Request Overview
This PR adds concurrency controls to 12 GitHub Actions workflow files to prevent multiple runs of the same workflow on the same branch/ref from executing simultaneously.
- Adds concurrency groups using
${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.ref }}pattern to most workflows - Sets
cancel-in-progress: truefor CI/validation workflows to save resources - Sets
cancel-in-progress: falsefor release and stale workflows to ensure completion

This pull request updates several GitHub Actions workflow files to add concurrency controls. The main goal is to prevent multiple runs of the same workflow from executing simultaneously on the same branch or ref, which helps reduce unnecessary resource usage and ensures that only the latest workflow run is active. Most workflows now use a concurrency group based on the workflow name and branch/ref, with
cancel-in-progressset totrueso that in-progress runs are canceled when a new run is triggered. Two workflows (release.ymlandstale.yml) use a different concurrency configuration.Concurrency configuration added to workflows:
