ci: Enable experimental kernel stuff in ASan task
Base the task on --preset=dev-mode to ensure maximal coverage and add
the following:
bitcoin-chainstate (experimental) ... ON
libbitcoinkernel (experimental) ..... ON
kernel-test (experimental) .......... ON
What changed, and why it matters
This commit changes Bitcoin Core's continuous integration (CI) settings for one automated testing job. It switches the build configuration to use a developer preset and enables experimental kernel-related components for testing. There is no change to the actual Bitcoin node software that users run, no bug fix, and no security patch.
No security action needed. Treat as a normal infrastructure/testing change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The patch modifies .github/workflows/ci.yml and ci/test/00_setup_env_native_asan.sh. It renames the CI job, replaces -DWITH_USDT=ON -DWITH_ZMQ=ON -DBUILD_GUI=ON with --preset=dev-mode, and implicitly enables experimental kernel targets (bitcoin-chainstate, libbitcoinkernel, kernel-test) via that preset. This is purely a CI/test-matrix configuration change; no source code, build system defaults, or runtime behavior of shipped binaries is altered.
