Add warning and update PR checks for Swift on Linux

[angelapwen]

We are deprecating Swift support on Linux for code scanning (changenote in #2403).

This PR logs a warning for users in the init Action if it's determined that Swift on Linux is being run.

This change also updates the manual build script build.sh which we also use in internal repositories for testing: the swift command will only be run on MacOS rather than on both MacOS and Linux.

As a result, we can also update our PR checks that only test on Linux, to remove the setup-swift Action step as it is no longer needed; and other checks that look for the existence of Swift databases on Linux.

I've removed Swift analysis using a custom build command check on Linux images from required checks for main, releases/v3, and releases/v2 already as well.

Merge / deployment checklist

Looks good, a couple of suggestions

Suggested change

	description: "An end-to-end integration test of a multi-language repository using automatic language detection for MacOS"
	description: "An end-to-end integration test of a multi-language repository using automatic language detection"

🤔 I added the bit about MacOS because the test actually no longer tests autodetect for MacOS (since I had to manually exclude Swift from the languages input).

[henrymercer]

Alternatively we could make the languages input conditional, e.g. something like languages: ${{ runner.os == 'Linus' && 'cpp,csharp,go,java,javascript,python,ruby' || '' }}

[angelapwen]

Ah that's a good point! I had thought that an empty languages input might cause us to run with no languages but it looks like we guard against that and turn autodetect on:

codeql-action/src/config-utils.ts

Lines 384 to 392 in 5cdd182

	let rawLanguages = (languagesInput || "")
	.split(",")
	.map((x) => x.trim().toLowerCase())
	.filter((x) => x.length > 0);
	let autodetected: boolean;
	if (rawLanguages.length) {
	autodetected = false;
	} else {
	autodetected = true;

🧠 I'll make the change 👍

Thanks. Looks good after the typo is fixed.

Pushed a commit to rebuild the Action. Please mark the PR as ready for review to trigger PR checks.

Huh.. not sure why the Unit Test workflow isn't being picked up. I'll push an empty commit to try to force it to run.
