ENH: Convert from Docker action to composite action

Replace the Docker-based action (FROM ubuntu:18.04) with a composite
action that runs directly on the GitHub Actions runner. This fixes
two recurring CI reliability issues:

1. Docker Hub rate limiting (401/429) pulling ubuntu:18.04 (EOL)
   which intermittently breaks the linter across all remote modules.

2. Transient pixi download failures (HTTP 502) from the raw
   curl-pipe-to-bash install method.

The composite action uses:
- prefix-dev/setup-pixi@v0.9.4 for reliable pixi installation with
  built-in caching and retry (run-install: false since we only need
  pixi global install)
- curl --retry 3 --retry-delay 30 for resilient downloads
- Step outputs instead of env vars for clang-format version passing
- Explicit version verification step
- Direct runner execution (no Docker pull needed)

The Dockerfile and entrypoint.sh are retained for backwards
compatibility but are no longer referenced by action.yml.
