🟡 Changes recommended
actions/cache is pinned to the same SHA as actions/checkout, which is very likely an invalid ref for the cache action and can break the workflow.

Pull request overview
This PR updates multiple GitHub Actions workflows to pin actions/checkout (and in a few places actions/upload-artifact) to specific commit SHAs to avoid mutable tags and reduce deprecation warnings from older Node-based action releases.
Changes:
- Pinned
actions/checkoutto a specific commit SHA across the Zephyr, unit test, docs, tooling, and build workflows. - Pinned
actions/upload-artifactto a specific commit SHA in workflows that publish build/fuzzer artifacts. - Updated one
actions/cacheusage to a commit SHA (but the chosen SHA appears to be incorrect for that action repo).

These actions use Node.js 20. This version is now deprecated and GitHub is emitting warnings in action workflow logs. Updating following actions: - checkout from v4 to v7.0.1 - upload-artifact from v4 to v7.0.1 - cache from v4 to v6.1.0 Updated to use version SHA instead of tags. Tags can be changed and the current trend is to pin to a specific version. Signed-off-by: Tomasz Leman <tomasz.m.leman@intel.com>
