chore(ci): remove dead Codecov upload steps + lock pins

[hyperpolymath]

Removed CI references to apps that are no longer installed on this account/org.

Why this is a fix, not a tidy-up

• Codecov was uninstalled as a GitHub App, but its action steps remain in workflows.
• The estate Actions allowlist already pruned codecov/codecov-action@* (standards/config/settings/actions-allowlist.json -> pruned_from_live_2026_09_02), so a workflow still calling it fails at job start instead of quietly no-op-ing.
• Snyk / Codacy / Mergify / ImgBot / CodeFactor are on the estate never-re-add list (standards spec §9, rulings R1/R4/R5).

Changes

• polygraph/.github/workflows/ci.yml — applied

Notes

• actions.lock entries for the removed actions are deleted in this same commit (the same-PR regen rule in the CI/CD regularisation spec §6.4), so actions-lock-verify sees no drift.
• Removals are line-exact; no other line was reformatted and no comment was re-wrapped.
• Historical records (milestone logs, CHANGELOG, audit docs, specs) that describe the removal were deliberately left untouched.
• The gitar-approved label is intentionally frozen per docs/LABELS.adoc — it is not an active Gitar install, so it stays.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Backend test coverage reports are no longer uploaded to the external coverage service during continuous integration.

Walkthrough

The backend-tests job no longer uploads ./backend/coverage.xml to Codecov. The removal also removes the backend flag from that upload step.
