Subject: [PATCH 1/6] Placeholder build.yaml on main, so the Actions list names
 the builds "build"

GitHub shows one workflow per path and names it from the default branch's
file. build.yaml only existed on the build branches, so the list kept the
name of the first branch that registered the path ("jazzy build_linux64").
The placeholder has only a manual trigger and a no-op step; the build
branches keep their own generated build.yaml.

Subject: [PATCH 2/6] Remove orphaned config entries and explain the
 tl_expected/sophus mapping

Drop entries for packages that are in neither the distro's snapshot nor its
pending sync snapshot: dead packages_select_by_deps seeds (incl. the
autoware_lanlet2_utils typo duplicate), dependencies.yaml and
pkg_additional_info.yaml entries, and humble's test_ros_gz_bridge exclude.

Move the orphaned tl_expected/sophus comment from vinca.yaml to the
robostack.yaml mappings it actually describes.

Subject: [PATCH 3/6] vinca.yaml: drop outdated and "requested in" comments;
 remove emscripten patches

Remove platform-failure notes for packages that now build there (checked
against the jazzy/humble channels: foxglove_bridge, gtsam, joy_linux, libg2o,
moveit_runtime, robot_localization, ros_gz_interfaces, ublox, ...), all
"requested in" links, and duplicated halves of merged comments.

humble's *.emscripten.patch files are unused here (no emscripten platform).

Subject: [PATCH 5/6] rosbag2_performance_benchmarking_msgs: short CMake
 intermediate dirs on Windows

The object file paths of its generated type support exceed MSVC's 260
characters (C1083: Cannot open compiler generated file: ''), failing the
jazzy and lyrical win-64 builds. CMAKE_INTERMEDIATE_DIR_STRATEGY=SHORT
(CMake >= 4.2; the builds use 4.4) names them by short hashes. It has to be
a CMake argument: rattler-build doesn't pass the environment variable
through to the build script.

Subject: [PATCH 6/6] rolling: keep slam_toolbox's and grid_map_octomap's
 dependency overrides

Both are only temporarily missing from rolling (lyrical, branched from it,
has them), so their overrides stay for when they're released again.
