Subject: [PATCH] feat(ci): Add kernel module build and release workflow

Introduce a workflow to build kernel modules for multiple header packages on PRs and releases. PR builds verify compilation, while release builds package outputs and publish them to a Gitea release. This enhances automation and ensures compatibility across target environments.
