What changed, and why it matters
This commit adds a new automated testing job to Bitcoin Core's GitHub Actions CI pipeline. It does not change any wallet, kernel, or consensus code, nor does it alter how the software behaves on users' machines. It simply tells the project's continuous integration system to run an existing test configuration ('No wallet, libbitcoinkernel') on every relevant build.
No security action needed. This is a routine CI configuration change. Reviewers may optionally verify that the referenced environment script exists and that the runner labels are correct.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff adds one matrix entry to .github/workflows/ci.yml under the existing CI job list. The entry references an existing environment script (ci/test/00_setup_env_native_nowallet_libbitcoinkernel.sh), a Cirrus/Ubuntu runner image, a fallback runner, and a 120-minute timeout. No source code, build scripts, or runtime logic are modified.
