Subject: [PATCH] fix(ci): run cargo build/test inline instead of via a missing
 action command

The Rust job called gha-ci-workflow-helpers with command: rust-build and
command: rust-test, but the action never implemented those - only
rust-format and rust-clippy exist, across every release through v1.1.7.
Every repo whose Rust CI actually ran therefore died at the build step:

    ##[error]Unknown command: rust-build

reusable-ci was migrated to call action commands that were never added.
Build and test now run `cargo build --release` / `cargo test --release`
inline; format and clippy keep using the action, which supports them.

Surfaced by falkcorp/cockroach-rollout-agent, whose Rust CI activated for
the first time during the TODO fan-out (its Cargo.lock changed). The
crate itself builds, clippies, and tests clean locally - the failure was
purely this missing-command bug.

+### Fixed
+
+#### Rust CI no longer fails with "Unknown command: rust-build"
+
+The Rust job invoked `gha-ci-workflow-helpers` with `command: rust-build` and
+`command: rust-test`, but that action never implemented either command — only
+`rust-format` and `rust-clippy` exist, in every release through v1.1.7. So every
+repository whose Rust CI actually ran failed at the build step with
+`Unknown command: rust-build`.
+
+The build and test steps now run `cargo build --release` / `cargo test --release`
+inline. Format and clippy still go through the action, which does support them.
