ci: Harmonize commit message format between commitlint and check-commits CI.

[nedseb]

Description

Two commit validation mechanisms coexist with slightly different formats:

commitlint (local git hook) — conventional commits format:

<type>(<scope>): <Description.>

Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, ci, build, chore, perf, revert, tooling

check-commits.yml (CI) — legacy format:

<scope>: <Description.>

Pattern: ^[^!]+: [A-Za-z]+.+ .+\.$

Currently both accept the project's existing format (scope: Description.) because commitlint has subject-case: [0] and subject-full-stop: [0] disabled. But the conventional format (feat(scope): Description.) is not validated by the CI regex.

Tasks

• Decide on a single format (conventional commits recommended)
• Update check-commits.yml regex to accept conventional commits format
• Or replace check-commits.yml with commitlint in CI (run npx commitlint --from origin/main in the workflow)
• Update CONTRIBUTING.md if needed
