[GH Request] remove/re-enable static-assets-check for edx-platform in order to land a PR

Requested Change

In order to land the PR to fix edx-platform testing, we need to disable the static-assets-check as a required check in the branch protection rules of edx-platform, as it's pinned to ubuntu-latest: openedx/edx-platform#35635

For example:

static-assets-check (ubuntu-latest, 3.11, 18, 10.5.x, 7.0)

Once the PR has landed, we would like to enable these checks again for ubuntu-22.04.

Reasoning

The rollover to ubuntu-24.04 caused a bunch of things to be broken in our current edx-platform workflows. We want to pin to ubuntu-22.04 while we work out how to upgrade the workflows and edx.org to ubuntu-24.04. The PR has more context.

I removed the two status-assets-check checks from the branch protection rules for master on edx-platform.

FYI @feanil as this is related to targeting ubuntu-latest.

[github-actions]

Thank you for your report! @openedx/axim-oncall will triage within a business day. Simple requests usually take 2-3 business days to resolve; more complex requests could take longer.

I removed the status checks at around 9:56 EDT and put ubuntu-22.04 versions of them back in place at about 11:03 EDT.
