Subject: [PATCH] ci: gate the Fable compile targets
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Closes #29.

#25 got src compiling for BEAM, JS and Python, but CI only ever ran the .NET job.
Nothing stopped a later change to src/ from silently breaking a target — the
failure would stay invisible until someone ran `just test-<target>` by hand.

The cross-target suites cannot gate anything yet (JS 82/84, Python 79/84, BEAM
14/84), but compilation is binary and already green on all three, so gate that.

A matrix job with fail-fast off, one runner per target, so a break in one does not
mask the state of the others. Nothing is executed, only compiled, so the job needs
no Node, uv, rebar3 or erl — just the `fable` tool already pinned in
.config/dotnet-tools.json.

Verified locally: `dotnet fable src --lang <beam|javascript|python>` exits 0 for
all three.
