The Nix build now runs the installed-binary facet of the packaging tier
against the binary it has just produced, via an `installCheckPhase` that
sets `GITEA_AXI_INSTALLED_BIN` to `$out/bin/gitea-axi` and runs the new
`test:installed` script. Running after `fixupPhase` means the binary
under test is the wrapped one an operator actually gets, and naming it is
all the phase does — the assertions stay in the shared tier, so the npm
and Nix installation paths cannot drift apart in what they guarantee.

`npmInstallHook` prunes dev dependencies out of the build tree before the
check runs, so `preInstall` snapshots `node_modules` with `cp -al` and the
check restores it by copying, leaving the snapshot intact for a replayed
phase.

Two defects fixed in passing, both surfaced by review:

`test:installed` pins a test file by path while the packaging runner sets
`passWithNoTests: true`, so moving that file would have taken the build
green having asserted nothing — the same silently-inert trap `doCheck`
sprang in task 0037. The script now passes `--passWithNoTests=false`.

`checkPhase`'s vitest left a timestamped run cache under
`node_modules/.vite`, which `npmInstallHook` copied into `$out`, shipping
a stray cache and making the derivation non-reproducible. It is now
removed before the install phase; `nix build --rebuild` passes.

The two facets are `test/packaging/tarball.test.ts`, which is npm-specific by nature, and `test/packaging/installed-binary.test.ts`, which asserts what any *installed* gitea-axi must do, whatever installed it.
That second facet is therefore also the check a non-npm installation path runs against its own output.
Set `GITEA_AXI_INSTALLED_BIN` to the path of an already-installed binary to have it drive that one and skip the pack-and-install setup.
The Nix build is that other caller: its `installCheckPhase` points this variable at the wrapped binary it has just installed and runs the facet alone via `npm run test:installed`.
So `nix build` and `npm run test:pack` guarantee the same things about an installed gitea-axi, and neither can quietly weaken while the other holds.
