Docker Build Smoke Test

Docker Build Smoke Test #31

name: 'Docker Build Smoke Test'
# Verifies the full Docker build chain works without any caching.
# Catches native module compilation failures (e.g., isolated-vm, sqlite3)
# that layer caching can mask in the regular E2E pipeline.
#
# Full chain: pnpm install → pnpm build (no Turbo cache) →
# build base image (no Docker cache) →
# build n8n + runners images (no Docker cache)
