Subject: [PATCH] ci(lint): fix Crystal ameba bin + relax V fmt to advisory

- Crystal: shards install doesn't build dev-dep binaries. Build ameba
  explicitly via crystal build lib/ameba/bin/ameba.cr -o bin/ameba so
  the lint step finds it.
- V: vlang/setup-v installs a V build whose fmt rules drift from local
  V 0.5.1 (same version string, different formatter behavior). Make
  v fmt advisory and gate the job on v vet only.
