fix(ci): restore Linux runner labels and action versions

The previous commit accidentally downgraded action versions (v5/v6 → v4)
and removed the Linux label from self-hosted runner selectors. This caused
Windows runners to pick up jobs with bash syntax, failing with PowerShell
parse errors (Missing '(' after 'if' in if statement).

Fixes:
- Restore runs-on: [self-hosted, Linux] for all self-hosted jobs
- Restore actions/checkout@v5, setup-go@v6, setup-node@v5
- Restore actions/upload-artifact@v5, download-artifact@v5
