Fix CI DinD networking: replace host mode with compose-internal Playwright

The test-runners job was failing because network_mode: host puts the
armature container on DinD's network namespace, unreachable from the
workflow container which is on a separate bridge network.

Fix: Remove host networking entirely. Add a test-runner service to the
CI compose override that runs Playwright tests on the same bridge
network as armature, using Docker DNS (http://armature:80).

Changes:
- docker-compose.ci.yml: Replace network_mode: host with healthcheck
  on armature + Playwright test-runner service (depends_on: healthy)
- ci.yaml: Collapse 7 test-runners steps into 3 (checkout, compose
  up --exit-code-from test-runner, teardown)
