security: drop the local trufflehog job — it startup_failures the whole run
Bisected on http-capability-gateway 2026-07-21 with two isolation branches: exp/scan-only (reusable only) -> 3 jobs created, run executes exp/trufflehog-only (trufflehog only) -> 0 jobs created, startup_failure startup_failure means no job is ever created, so the Secret Scanner has been reporting nothing at all — not a red, an absence. This repo has had no secret scanning since the pin landed. A required check that never reports is indistinguishable from one still running, which is why this went unnoticed. The action is allowlisted (`trufflesecurity/trufflehog@*` is in patterns_allowed, github_owned_allowed=true), so this is not an Actions-policy rejection; the reference itself fails to resolve at run creation. Removing it loses no coverage: standards' secret-scanner-reusable dropped trufflehog deliberately ("Trufflehog removed: gitleaks provides sufficient coverage at lower cost"), and the reusable's gitleaks + rust-secrets + shell-secrets jobs now run for real on this repo.
