Summary: This PR fixes release workflow issues for backfilling missed crates.io publishes.

P1 Issue: Logic Error in check-repo Condition

The check-repo condition in cargo-publish.yml:95 has inverted logic:

check-repo: ${{ github.event_name \!= 'workflow_dispatch' || inputs.skip_check_repo \!= true }}

Problem: When the user sets skip_check_repo=true during a workflow_dispatch, this evaluates to:

• false || false = false (correct - skips check)

However, when skip_check_repo=false (default):

• false || true = true (correct - performs check)

When triggered by a release event:

• true || (anything) = true (correct - performs check)

Actually, on closer inspection the logic is correct. Disregard this concern.

Minor Observations (Not blockers)

1. The PR description mentions changing runner from ubuntu-2404-8x-x64 to warp-ubuntu-latest-x64-8x, but the diff only shows adding the skip_check_repo input and check-repo parameter. The runner change appears to have been done in a prior commit already merged to main (line 25 shows warp-ubuntu-latest-x64-8x).

2. The fixes to java-publish.yml and pypi-publish.yml are correct - adding || github.ref as fallback ensures the checkout works when inputs.ref is not provided during non-workflow_dispatch events.

LGTM

The changes correctly address the issue. The ref fallback fixes are straightforward and follow the pattern already used in other jobs (e.g., pypi-publish.yml linux job at line 57).
