Subject: [PATCH] ci(genesis): run the OpenEmbedded check only when its inputs
 change

The OpenEmbedded metadata job ran on every pull request and took about
20 minutes. It reads only xCAT-genesis-builder/oe and
xCAT-genesis-scripts, and it pins its upstream sources to fixed commits.
A pull request that changes neither directory gets the same result each
time.

The job moves unchanged to its own workflow, which runs only when those
paths or the workflow file change. xcat_pr_test stays in xcat_test.yml
and runs on every pull request, because a required check that does not
run blocks the merge.
