GRM-152: fix: fetch rootless Docker scripts on Arch Linux

+- On Arch Linux, `rootless_docker.yml` fetches the rootless setup scripts

+  at a pinned ref (`gitea_runner_rootless_scripts_ref`) into `/usr/bin` and installs
+  `rootlesskit` — Arch's `docker` package ships neither. These fetch tasks run
+  regardless of `docker_rootless_setup` so CI exercises them on the archlinux platform.

 Containers launched by the runner never have root access to the host. The rootless Docker daemon is started as a systemd user service and persists via lingering.
 
+#### Platform-specific rootless provisioning
+
+The rootless setup scripts (`dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh` and `dockerd-rootless.sh`) are provided differently per OS:
+
+- **Debian/Ubuntu** — shipped by the `docker-ce-rootless-extras` package (installed via the Docker APT repo).
+- **Arch Linux** — the `docker` package does **not** include these scripts, and no official Arch package provides them. The role fetches them from the upstream `moby/moby` `contrib/` directory at a pinned, overridable git ref (`gitea_runner_rootless_scripts_ref`, default `v28.5.1`) and installs them into `/usr/bin` — co-located with `docker`/`dockerd`/`rootlesskit`, which is required because `dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh` derives its `BIN` directory from its own location and expects those binaries alongside it. The `rootlesskit` package (a required rootless runtime dependency that is not pulled in by Arch's `docker` package) is also installed explicitly.

 ## Installation Issues
 
+### `No such file or directory: dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh` (Arch Linux)
+
+**Symptom:** `grm install` fails on an Arch Linux host during rootless Docker setup with `Error executing command: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: b'dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh'`.
+
+**Cause:** Arch's `docker` package does not ship the rootless setup scripts (unlike Debian/Ubuntu's `docker-ce-rootless-extras`), and `rootlesskit` is not a dependency of the `docker` package.
+
+**Solution:** This is handled automatically by GRM ≥ v0.19.0. Ensure you are on the latest release (`git checkout $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)`). The role fetches the scripts from upstream `moby/moby` and installs `rootlesskit` automatically. If it still fails, verify the host can reach `raw.githubusercontent.com` (the script source) and check the Ansible log under `~/.local/state/grm/logs/`.

 **Symptom:** Ansible reports `UNREACHABLE` when trying to connect to the target host.
