ci: Skip checkpatch for Renovate PRs

One issue checkpatch checks is whether the commit subject is not too long. Renovate commits tend to have long subjects for a reason (e.g. including the digest). Other checkpatch checks are either ignored or relevant only for BPF code, so it's fine to skip the entire workflow for Renovate PRs. If there are more checks added then we should revisit it (and maybe update cilium-checkpatch). Signed-off-by: Anna Kapuscinska <[email protected]>
