a2923bf063 fix(cdn): purge the staging zone too (#181)

## Motivation

`cran-rpkgs-test` was added as a second pull zone on the same B2 origin, but it was never added to `BUNNY_PULLZONES`. It therefore keeps serving pre-reindex indexes behind the same ~370 day `cache_expiration_time` as production, and nothing ever refreshes it.

That is not cosmetic. The zone exists to be measured, and a verification run against it measures whatever the edge still holds:

```
production: regressions=0    AGHmatrix Path=NA   Built=R 4.5.3; x86_64-pc
staging   : regressions=161  AGHmatrix Path=4.5  Built=(none)
```

Same objects, same origin, 161 phantom regressions. I chased that number through two wrong diagnoses before noticing production and staging disagreed.

## Change

Add `cran-rpkgs-test.b-cdn.net` to the purge list in both reindex pipelines.

## Note

A `Cache-Control: no-cache` request header is not a substitute. It was added to the verification script and did **not** clear this: bunny does not honour it for these objects. Purging is the mechanism that works.

f3077677d7 ci: add a reindex-only manual workflow (#177)
## Motivation

`weekly-rebuild-reindex` exists to run after `weekly-rebuild-missing`: it declares `depends_on: weekly-rebuild-missing` and is gated on that workflow's `weekly_rebuild_missing` variable. Triggering it manually therefore also starts hours of package rebuilds.

That is the wrong tool when only the index needs regenerating. After rpkgs/bincraft#113 (v5.1.5), which changes how `union_index_records()` decides what a per-minor index steers to, every object in the bucket is already correct and only `PACKAGES*` is stale. Rebuilding to fix an index is pure waste, and the natural cron would take a full cycle to reach every slot.

## Change

Adds `.crow/reindex.yaml`: the index half on its own, manual only, no dependency on a rebuild.

It reuses the same matrix and the same steps as `weekly-rebuild-reindex` — install the latest bincraft release, republish the generic index, loop the installed R versions republishing each per-minor index, purge the edge. No package is built.

Gated on a new `reindex` variable so it cannot be started by the rebuild gate, defaulting to `none` so a manual pipeline creation (which instantiates every file in `.crow/`) matches no matrix row.

```sh
crow pipeline create devxy/build-cran-binaries --var reindex=all
crow pipeline create devxy/build-cran-binaries --var reindex=ubuntu-2404-amd64
```

## Verification

- `crow lint .crow/` passes.
- Gate is manual-only and evaluates `reindex`, with no `depends_on` and no `runs_on` carried over from the rebuild coupling.
