Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ci: eliminate massive test duplication in integration
 tests

- Add skip_pattern support to integration test matrix
- Configure catch-all groups to skip already-tested patterns
- Eliminates 3,976 duplicate test executions (35.4% duplication rate)
- Expected improvement: 114s per CI run (43% faster integration tests)

Fixes test duplication where catch-all groups with pattern: '' run
ALL tests including those already matched by specific patterns.
