ci: pass NIX_CONFIG with GitHub token into all test containers

- Add NIX_CONFIG with GitHub access token to all CI test workflows
- Export NIX_CONFIG in Makefile for propagation to test scripts
- Forward NIX_CONFIG explicitly into all docker run invocations
- Prevent GitHub API rate limit errors during Nix-based tests
