The workflow as written failed on ddf805e: with no JUNIE_API_KEY secret the
input expands to empty and the action exits on "Missing required input",
marking the pull request failed for a reason that has nothing to do with its
code. I called it inert without the key. It was not inert; it was red, and it
would have been red on every pull request until someone added the secret.
So gate the steps on the key's presence and write the reason into the run
summary instead. `secrets` is not a context a step's `if` can read and neither
`secrets` nor `env` is available to a job-level `if`, so the presence is
resolved once into a job-level env var, which steps can read.
The action step also gets continue-on-error: an outage or a rate limit at
JetBrains' end is worth seeing in the log, but this workflow is meant to be an
opinion beside CI rather than a gate in front of it, and a failure to obtain
that opinion should not hold a pull request whose tests pass.
