fix(ci): replace local -e path with Forgejo VCS URL for circuitforge-core

CI checks out only the peregrine repo — ../circuitforge-core doesn't exist,
causing 'pip install -r requirements.txt' to fail.

requirements.txt now uses git+https://...@main as the fallback for CI and
bare pip installs. Dockerfile.cfcore installs cfcore from the local COPY
first (skipping the requirements.txt line) to avoid a redundant network
fetch during Docker builds.
