[lint-monster] Replace loop string concatenation hotspots and set-like bool maps #49029

Description

@github-actions

Summary

Custom lint scan found 42 non-largefunc performance/style findings that mostly share one root cause: repeated string concatenation with += inside loops.

Breakdown:

  • 41x += string-in-loop findings that should become strings.Builder usage
  • 1x map-set allocation finding (map[string]bool used as a set)

Hotspots:

  • pkg/workflow/checkout_config_parser.go — 10 findings
  • pkg/cli/audit_report_render.go — 8 findings
  • pkg/cli/bootstrap_config.go — 4 findings
  • several smaller occurrences across pkg/workflow and pkg/cli
  • pkg/actionpins/actionpins_internal_test.go:173 — replace map[string]bool set usage with map[string]struct{}

Representative diagnostics:

  • pkg/workflow/checkout_config_parser.go:316 — string concatenation with += inside a loop allocates O(n2) bytes; use strings.Builder
  • pkg/cli/audit_report_render.go — multiple repeated loop concatenation findings
  • pkg/actionpins/actionpins_internal_test.go:173 — use map[string]struct{} for a set

Expected outcome

Convert loop-based string building to strings.Builder (or equivalent minimal fix) and update the one set-like map allocation pattern.

Remediation checklist

  • Group edits by file and keep each change minimal.
  • Prefer strings.Builder for loop-accumulated strings; preserve exact output.
  • Replace map[string]bool set usage with map[string]struct{} where no boolean state is needed.
  • Avoid touching any largefunc refactors in this issue.
  • Validate with make golint-custom.
