* [AI] Stabilize size-compare job by pinning downloads to run_id The compare job in .github/workflows/size-compare.yml was flaky because fountainhead/action-wait-for-check matched a check by name from any run on the branch, while dawidd6/action-download-artifact with branch:/pr: filters and workflow_conclusion: '' resolved to the latest run regardless of completion. When a new master build started in the seconds between waiting and downloading, the action picked up the in-progress run and failed with "artifact not found". Replaces the eight wait-for-check steps with one actions/github-script step that polls listWorkflowRuns for a successful build.yml run on master and the PR head SHA in parallel via Promise.all, then pins all eight downloads to those run_ids.
