Part of #82936.

What?

Moves PHP coding standards checks (phpcs) out of wp-env into a new phpcs job in unit-test.yml. The job runs on the runner at PHP 7.4, reports violations as annotations with cs2pr, and checks that no version-controlled files changed. The .cache/.gitkeep, .gitignore and phpcs.xml.dist changes add the PHPCS scan cache. It also sets timeout-minutes: 20 on the new phpcs job, like the other jobs got in #84763.

In the PHPUnit job, the Running lint check step is replaced by an Install Composer dependencies step (npm run wp-env run composer "install --no-interaction").

Why?

Coding standards checks don't depend on the PHP version being tested. Inside wp-env they only ran after the environment started, they repeated on every leg of the PHP matrix added in #84772, and violations showed up as container logs instead of annotations on the diff.

The lint step's prelint-php hook was also the only thing that installed Composer dependencies for PHPUnit, and phpunit/bootstrap.php requires vendor/autoload.php. wp-env start doesn't install them on this branch, so the new step keeps that install.

The job uses PHP 7.4 because the PHP_CodeSniffer and WPCS releases this branch depends on emit deprecation notices on PHP 8.4 and newer that abort the scan.

How?

Ports the phpcs job from #46510 (9ee17a7).

The phpcs command keeps --runtime-set ignore_warnings_on_exit 1 from this branch's Composer lint script, so existing warnings are still reported but don't fail the job, as before.

Both Composer installs fail until #84777 (two PRs up) adds config.allow-plugins and config.platform.php.
