Walkthrough

GitHub workflow files are updated to use munich-quantum-software/setup-mlir@f3ebc0bd (v1.3.0) in place of the previous commit (v1.2.1); the Windows workflow also adds a conditional debug input. CHANGELOG.md is updated to add a 1.17.15 entry documenting the bumps.

🐰 Hoppity hop, the actions align,

setup-mlir jumps a tiny spine.
LLVM 22 bounces in the light,
Debug on Windows winks at night.
Pipelines hum — a carrot-bright delight 🌿

- Line 17: The changelog entry references [`#335`] but the PR links section lacks
a definition; add a link definition for [`#335`] in CHANGELOG.md's PR links
section (e.g., `[ `#335` ]:
https://github.com/munich-quantum-software/setup-mlir/pull/335` using the

[munich-quantum-software/setup-mlir] to `v1.3.0`" resolves correctly.
