The model fetch has been failing on every run with

  LFS: Client error: .../info/lfs/objects/0672d7a7...

which reads like a rejected credential and is not one. The object is on
the server and downloads fine; what fails is the shape of the request.

`git lfs pull` makes two calls. The first, to `/info/lfs/objects/batch`,
succeeds -- and Gitea answers it with a short-lived `Bearer` JWT scoped
to that one object, for git-lfs to use on the second. git-lfs sends that
JWT *and* the `Authorization` header this step had installed in git
config, and two `Authorization` headers is a 400 from Gitea. Hence a
client error on the object one step after the batch call it just made
successfully, which is what made this look like an auth problem rather
than a duplication.

Confirmed directly against the server: the JWT alone on that URL is a
200, the JWT plus any second `Authorization` is a 400, and a lone token
header that is merely wrong is a 401 -- so the scheme was never the
issue. `lfs: true` on the checkout fails the same way and for the same
reason, because actions/checkout persists a header of its own; the
comment here blaming a credential the endpoint would not accept was
wrong on both counts.

So the headers are stripped -- checkout's included, since nothing later
in either job talks to the remote -- and the token is handed to git-lfs
as an ordinary credential instead. It authenticates the batch call and
leaves the per-object JWT alone.

This is what fails the Android job today: the build script sees a
133-byte pointer and panics by design, which is the message it is
supposed to give and the one nobody could act on.
