Fixed stale Ghost-CLI update checks in CI

[9larsons]

Summary

• skip the Ghost-CLI latest-release update check when the CI archive cannot upgrade the installed latest release
• keep the archive clean-install check running so PR tarball coverage remains intact
• document the stale-PR-after-release case inline in the workflow

Context

The failing run was a PR event from a fork branch named main, not a push to TryGhost/Ghost's main. Its tarball was built as 6.45.0-rc.0, but npm latest had already moved to 6.45.0, so ghost update --archive correctly rejected the archive as a downgrade.

This can happen for any stale PR after a release, not only fork PRs. Checking whether the archive can actually upgrade the installed latest release matches the Ghost-CLI invariant and avoids hiding the clean-install coverage for PR artifacts.
