Debug: print copilot-review gate inputs#1592

Prints draft, author_association, and event action on every PR to diagnose why the request-copilot-review gate is evaluating to false on maintainer PRs (e.g. #1589). Remove once the gate is fixed.

The pull_request_target event payload reports author_association as CONTRIBUTOR for org members on same-repo branches (confirmed via the debug-event job added in #1592 and fired by #1593), so the previous gate filtered out every maintainer PR. Switch to head.repo.full_name == base.repo.full_name. Same-repo PRs require push access to the base repo, which is the maintainer signal we actually want. Fork PRs (where the maintainer cannot push to base) remain excluded. Also removes the now-unneeded debug-event job.

Summary
debug-eventjob to.github/workflows/copilot-review.ymlthat printsaction,draft,author_association,user.login, and head/base repo on everypull_request_targetevent.Why
The
request-copilot-reviewjob has been silently skipped on every PR since the workflow landed (e.g. #1589, plus the next maintainer PR after it). The REST view of those PRs showsdraft: falseandauthor_association: "MEMBER", which should satisfy the gate, so the event payload likely contains a different value at trigger time. The debug job will surface that value once any PR fires the workflow.Test plan
