Research direction

Start with the failed GitHub Actions Lints run and compare it with the successful rerun. Trace the v8-145.0.0 build.rs download step and determine why the rusty_v8 archive fetch can fail transiently. Done means the Lints job no longer flakes on this download and the relevant CI run succeeds reliably.
