infra(ci): skip slow diagnostics when golangci-lint fails; bump timeout

Two changes to help CI complete on slow runners:

1. Diagnostic tests (handlers + pendinguploads with -race) now run only when
   golangci-lint succeeds. These tests take 8-9 minutes each on cold runners,
   pushing the job past the 15m ceiling even when golangci-lint times out
   at 3m. Making them conditional (if: success()) lets the job fail fast
   at 3m instead of running for 20m.

2. golangci-lint uses --no-config --timeout 10m to bypass the config file's
   hardcoded 3m timeout. This ensures the command-line flag is the active
   constraint regardless of .golangci.yaml settings.
