fix(deploy-prod): remove flaky Gitea API upstream validation

The 'Validate Upstream CI Success' step was calling Gitea API with
GITEA_TOKEN that either wasn't set or lacked permissions, causing
HTTP 403 Forbidden errors.

Simplified: prepare-release.yml already builds, tests, and packages
the artifact. deploy-prod.yml just deploys the pre-validated release.
No need for redundant CI validation in the deployment pipeline.
