This commit introduces the `force-ipv4` GitHub action to address
connectivity issues caused by the lack of IPv6 support in GitHub
runners. Details:
- actions/runner#3138
- actions/runner-images#668
This change solves connection problems when Node's `fetch` API fails due
to `UND_ERR_CONNECT_TIMEOUT` errors. Details:
- actions/runner-images#9540
- actions/runner#3213
This action disables IPv6 at the system level, ensuring all outging
requests use IPv4. Resolving connectivity issues when running external
URL checks and Docker build checks.
This solution is a temporary workaround until GitHub runners support
IPv6 or Node `fetch` API has a working solution such as Happy Eyeball.
