This PR moves the prepare_test_image_testdata, tests, and docker jobs from .github/workflows/checks.yml into a dedicated .github/workflows/tests.yml file.

The tests.yml workflow is configured with paths-ignore to skip running these tests when changes only affect:

  • Markdown files (**/*.md)
  • Documentation (docs/**)
  • Scripts (scripts/**)
  • Other workflows (.github/workflows/*), with the explicit exclusion of tests.yml and test-action/** so that test changes still trigger the validation.

This optimization ensures that changes to docs, dotfiles, or scripts won't trigger long-running test and docker setups, saving time and CI resources. Quick checks like formatting and linting will continue to run for all changes in the checks.yml workflow.

Moved the `prepare_test_image_testdata`, `tests`, and `docker` jobs from
`checks.yml` into a new `tests.yml` workflow file.

Configured `paths-ignore` for the `tests.yml` workflow so that these long-running
tests are skipped if changes only affect markdown files, documentation, scripts,
or other unrelated GitHub Actions workflows. This prevents unnecessary test runs
while still executing quick lint and formatting checks in `checks.yml`.

considering scripts are involved in the workflows shall we remove it from the ignore list?

I have removed scripts/** from the paths-ignore list so that workflow tests will correctly run when scripts are changed.
