chore(release): v0.8.0-nightly.20250926.2defdcff

Refactors the release-nightly.yml workflow to follow the established pattern used by other release workflows (release-manual, release-patch, etc.).

This change introduces a dedicated release subdirectory for the checkout, ensuring that all subsequent steps and local composite actions operate on a consistent and specific version of the code. This resolves an issue where the workflow could inadvertently execute stale or incorrect versions of actions from the default branch.
