fix(scripts): let issue.sh claim work on a write:issue-only token

`claim` is the one step the workflow requires before the first edit, and
it failed outright on a token scoped to the work it does: `me()` calls
`GET /user` purely to name the assignee, and that endpoint needs
read:user. So the documented process was blocked by its own tooling, and
the fallback was to do the assignment, the label and the comment by hand
— which is the half-made claim `claim` exists to prevent.

GITEA_USER short-circuits the lookup, so least privilege is enough. The
lookup stays as the fallback because it is right when the scope is there
and needs no setup. Failure is now actionable and says both remedies,
and it still happens before any of the three halves are mutated.

Closes #130

+  **The analyzer reads the type and ignores the scope, so a CI-only change
+  is `ci:` and never `fix(ci):`.** The scope is decoration; `fix` is a
+  patch whatever is in the brackets. Two commits touching nothing but
+  `.gitea/workflows/unclaim.yml` were written `fix(ci):` and cut `v0.2.1`
+  and `v0.2.2` — real releases, published to Arch, Homebrew and the APK
+  registry, containing no user-facing change. They were left in place
+  rather than deleted, because a version that vanishes is worse for
+  whoever pulled it than one that turns out to be empty.
+
+  **The blast radius is bigger than the version number**, which is what
+  makes this worth a paragraph. A merge to `main` starts two workflows;
+  if `release.yml` then pushes a tag, that tag push starts **four more**
+  (`arch-package`, `homebrew-formula`, `android-apk`, `desktop-assets`) —
+  on a runner with capacity 1, where the APK build alone is tens of
+  minutes. `make release-dry` before merging is how you find out, and it
+  is cheaper than every one of those.

   **`@semantic-release/github` is not in that config and must not be.**
   Gitea's API is `/api/v1` and is not GitHub's surface, so
   `@semantic-release/exec` calls `scripts/gitea-release.sh` instead — one
