Subject: [PATCH] ci: dynamically discover example directories for
 build-examples

Replace the hardcoded matrix list in the build-examples job with a
dynamic list-examples job that discovers all subdirectories under
example/ at runtime. This uses ls/jq to produce a JSON array and
fromJSON() to feed it into the matrix, so new examples are picked
up automatically without updating the workflow.
