actions/upload-artifact and download-artifact run code fetched from
github.com (and v4 is GHES-incompatible, v3 deprecated). The runner
host is single with a shared filesystem, so the orchestrator's
host-side collect dir is the artifact handoff:
- action.yml: replace the two upload-artifact steps with
host-path report steps; artifacts stay under F:\CI\Artifacts and
are aged by Invoke-RetentionPolicy.ps1.
- build-nsInnoUnp.yml: release job reads
F:\CI\Artifacts\{run_id}-{run_attempt}-{target} directly instead of
download-artifact; existing Gitea REST release-asset upload unchanged.
Tradeoff (accepted): artifacts are no longer downloadable from the
Gitea Actions run page for non-tag builds — only on host disk, and as
release assets for tagged builds.

PowerShell 5.1 `Out-File -Encoding utf8` prepends a UTF-8 BOM. The
act_runner GITHUB_OUTPUT parser then read the key as "artifact-path",
so steps.invoke-ci.outputs.artifact-path resolved empty. Combined with
the trailing backslash, the upload path became "\" -> the F: drive root,
causing upload-artifact to ingest the entire drive (hundreds of GB of
unrelated files).
- Append outputs with UTF8Encoding($false) (no BOM).
- Throw if artifactPath is empty instead of emitting nothing.
- Drop the trailing backslash; use /*.log for the diagnostic glob.

Gitea act_runner reports as GHES; @actions/artifact v2 (upload/
download-artifact@v4) uses the Twirp API Gitea does not implement,
failing with GHESNotSupportedError. v3 uses the artifact protocol
Gitea supports.
