Two issues surfaced by the first end-to-end ui-test.yaml run on a
clean Linux runner that don't reproduce locally:
- pkg/geoip tests load fixtures from the pkg/geoip/test-data git
submodule (MaxMind-DB). actions/checkout@v4 does not fetch
submodules by default, so the fixture path is missing on the
runner. Both ui-test and ui-release workflows now check out with
submodules: recursive.
- pkg/util/TestWritable asserts that /usr/lib is not writable, which
holds for unprivileged users but fails inside the catthehacker
workflow container that runs as root. Skip that branch when
os.Geteuid() == 0; the root-only "the writable dir is writable"
branch still runs.
