Aligns the star ranking with the rule the skills index already follows:
GitHub is consulted only by the twice-daily skills-index.yml schedule, whose
artifact every docs deploy reuses. deploy-site.yml now runs
fetch-plugin-stars.py without --probe (reuse-only: artifact → live site copy →
disk → empty) and cannot call the API at all, so a same-day merge train adds
zero requests regardless of cache age.
The probe itself collapses from one REST call per repo (~26 today, growing
with the catalog) to a single GraphQL query with aliased repository fields,
so the scheduled run costs one request no matter how big the catalog gets. A
failed probe (rate limit, renamed repo, bad token) keeps the previous counts.
