The copilot-setup-steps.yml has always used `on: pull_request` with a paths filter, meaning the Copilot coding agent never had proper setup steps. Restore the `on: workflow_dispatch` trigger so the agent gets the right build environment when assigned to issues. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Pull request overview
Restores the GitHub Actions trigger needed for the Copilot coding agent to run the repository’s setup workflow when invoked manually (e.g., when the agent is used outside PR validation).
Changes:
- Renamed the workflow display name.
- Switched the workflow trigger to
workflow_dispatch(manual invocation). - Removed the previous
pull_requestpath-filtered CI trigger and the explicitpermissionsblock.

The
copilot-setup-steps.ymlwas introduced in #307 withon: pull_request(CI validation only) and has never hadon: workflow_dispatch. This means the Copilot coding agent has no setup steps when assigned to issues -- it won't have .NET orgh-awavailable.This restores the standard
on: workflow_dispatchtrigger so the Copilot coding agent gets the right build environment.
