 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="59983"
 Build/Test Tools: Introduce a workflow for checking built files.

 There are several files generated and updated by the build process that
 are under version control. Including changes to these files is a common
 missed step for contributors regardless of experience level.

 This introduces a workflow that checks for changes to versioned files as a
 result of other changes in pull requests and commits them back to the head
 branch. Because this workflow requires the `pull_request_target` event
 instead of `pull_request`, local references to reusable workflows should
 never be used.

 In addition to improving the contributor experience, this also opens the
 door to use Dependabot for monitoring npm dependencies, many of which
 produce changes to built files when updating.

 Props desrosj, johnbillion, joemcgill, swissspidy.
 See #62221.
