This exposes the GitHub Actions token to `ci/check_style.sh` as `GH_TOKEN`. The style-check job already receives a repository-scoped token with `contents: read`, but the failing step did not have it in its environment, so `rapids-metadata` made an unauthenticated request and hit HTTP 429. Passing the token follows GitHub's supported authentication pattern and enables the companion rapidsai/rapids-metadata#79 change to make authenticated requests with retries. rapidsai/rapids-metadata#79 depends on this PR.

This updates remote metadata fetching to use the GitHub Contents API with
GH_TOKENorGITHUB_TOKENwhen available, while retaining the raw URL for unauthenticated requests. It adds bounded retries for rate limits and transient HTTP or transport errors, honoring GitHub’sRetry-Afterheader when provided. This addresses the cuDF style-check failure where an unauthenticated metadata request returned HTTP 429. It depends on rapidsai/shared-workflows#589 to expose${{ github.token }}asGH_TOKENto style-check jobs.
