[GitHub] Add native pagination to lists

[TyceHerrman]

Description

The GitHub extension currently eager-loads multiple result batches before rendering some lists, while other lists use fixed-size requests without native Raycast pagination. This makes cold launches slower and increases the chance of large GraphQL requests failing.

This change:

• uses Raycast's paginated promise contract for repository, issue, pull-request, discussion, release, notification, workflow-run, and commit lists;
• caps search pages at 25 items while honoring smaller configured limits;
• uses forward GraphQL cursors for ordinary lists and backward cursors for newest-first pull-request commits;
• deduplicates accumulated pages by stable ID;
• introduces a lightweight RepositoryListFields fragment and loads releases only when opened;
• keeps mutation revalidation compatible with paginated results; and
• preserves the checked-in GraphQL schema pipeline, View Diff action, and Checks metadata from current upstream.

The expected user impact is that initial list results can render sooner and later pages load as the user navigates the list.

Validation

• npm run generate twice with identical output
• npm test
• ./node_modules/.bin/tsc -p tsconfig.json --noEmit
• npm run build
• npm run lint
• git diff --check
• Local Raycast build smoke-tested with repository search reset and starred repositories crossing a page boundary

Checklist

• I read the extension guidelines
• I read the documentation about publishing
• I ran npm run build and tested this distribution build in Raycast
• No files in the assets folder were changed
• No README assets were changed
