Sanitization 1.2.4

[eldryoth]

Release 1.2.4

• Switched the pinned/default toolchain to Rust 1.97.0 while retaining Rust
  1.90.0 as the minimum supported version.
• Verified the complete all-features workspace across every supported stable
  compiler from Rust 1.90.0 through Rust 1.97.0.
• Refreshed compatible dependency locks, including zeroize 1.9.0,
  arrayvec 0.7.8, bytes 1.12.1, quote 1.0.46, and syn 2.0.118.
• Pinned every GitHub Action to the immutable commit for its documented release,
  added Dependabot maintenance, and added a check that rejects mutable action
  references.
• Updated fallible secret constructors for Rust 1.97 Clippy without changing
  their clear-on-error RAII behavior.
• Surfaced guard-page setup cleanup failures consistently with locked mappings
  and documented that unmap errors take precedence when setup and cleanup both
  fail.
• Bounded Linux AArch64 auxiliary-vector read retries before falling back to the
  conservative page granule.
• Added SecretArrayVec::push_or_sanitize with a payload-free error for secure
  rejection while preserving conventional push behavior and its unchanged
  recoverable CapacityError<T> value.
• Added unwind-safe eager clearing guards to ReadOnceSecret::consume and
  consume_mut, including when another shared owner keeps the wrapper alive.
• Added BoundedSecretVec<MAX> for application-defined dynamic secret limits,
  including strict bounded serde handling for borrowed bytes, owned buffers,
  and sequences.
• Added a 1 MiB default ceiling to ordinary SecretVec deserialization so
  existing serde call sites are no longer unbounded by default.
• Pinned CI installation of cargo-audit to version 0.22.2.
• Added reproducible deployment guidance for locked, frozen, vendored final
  application dependency graphs.
• Updated all workspace crates and crates.io-facing version references for the
  1.2.4 patch release.
