What does this PR do
This PR adds a dedicated secret scanning workflow using Gitleaks.
It also keeps the redaction tests free from complete token-shaped literals, so secret scanners do not flag fake test fixtures as leaked credentials.
Why
Athen handles provider keys, GitHub identities, Telegram settings, email credentials, web-search keys, and other sensitive configuration.
Adding a lightweight secret scanning check helps catch accidentally committed credentials early, before they reach
main.Changes

Notes
This PR intentionally does not add a custom allowlist yet. If Gitleaks reports legitimate false positives, they should be reviewed individually and allowlisted narrowly rather than broadly disabling rules.
