Pull request overview
This PR closes a notification gap for failing daily workflows when the “rerun failed jobs” workflow decides not to rerun (or has exhausted rerun attempts), by having the rerun workflow open (or update) a GitHub issue directly.
Changes:
- Grant
issues: writepermission to the daily rerun workflow so it can manage failure issues. - Update the rerun script to create an issue (or add a comment to an existing one) when reruns are skipped due to max attempts or too many failed jobs.

Fixes the daily workflow notification gap introduced by auto-reruns.
When a daily workflow fails, the normal workflow notification job is skipped until after the configured rerun attempts. If the separate rerun workflow decides not to rerun the workflow, for example because too many jobs failed, the notification job never gets another chance to create the issue.
