ci: switch deploy+smoke jobs to self-hosted runner (peptide-vps)

Route deploy-staging, deploy-production, and smoke jobs through the
org self-hosted runner [self-hosted, peptide-vps] on KVM8 VPS.

This fixes the Hostinger SSH throttle: Azure eastus2/ncus ranges are
blocked at :65002; the VPS has a stable, allowlisted IP.

Callers' CI/validate jobs remain on ubuntu-latest (GitHub-hosted).

Bumps to v1.7.1.

-### Fixed
-- **CI**: Drop `--with-deps` from `npx playwright install chromium` in `smoke.yml`.
-  The `peptide-vps` self-hosted runner has OS-level Playwright deps pre-installed by
-  root; `--with-deps` invokes `apt-get` which requires `sudo`, blocked by the runner's
-  `NoNewPrivileges=true` systemd hardening. Binary-only install works without
-  elevated privileges.## [1.7.1] - 2026-06-17
 
 ### Changed
 - **CI/CD**: Switch `deploy-staging`, `deploy-production`, and `smoke` jobs from
