Two problems showed up while trying to log into the long-lived dev
environment with the dev-fixed code `123456`:

1. `ConfirmEmailCode` checked the per-challenge attempts ceiling
   *before* the dev-fixed-code override. A developer who burned past
   `ChallengeMaxAttempts` on an existing un-consumed challenge (easy
   to trigger when the throttle reuses one challenge_id) hit
   `ErrTooManyAttempts` and the UI rendered "code expired or already
   used" even though the fixed code was correct. Reorder so the
   dev-fixed-code branch runs first and bypasses both the bcrypt
   verify and the attempts gate. Production stays unaffected
   because production loaders refuse to set `DevFixedCode`.

2. `dev-deploy.yaml` only fires on push to `development`, so the
   matching docker-compose default change for
   `BACKEND_AUTH_DEV_FIXED_CODE` could not reach the running stack
   before this PR merged. Add `workflow_dispatch: {}` so a developer
   can deploy any branch — typically a feature branch under review —
   from the Gitea Actions UI without waiting for the merge.

Covered by a new `TestConfirmEmailCodeDevFixedCodeBypassesAttemptsCeiling`
integration test that burns through the ceiling with wrong codes
then proves the dev-fixed code still produces a session.
