Support both Variables and Secrets in workflows

- Allow NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL to be set as either Variable or Secret
- Update CI/CD workflow to check both secrets and variables
- Update debug workflow to show whether values come from secrets or variables
- Use fallback syntax: secrets.VAR || vars.VAR
- Improve error messages to guide users to correct settings location
