Pull request overview
This PR updates the mirror pipeline configuration for the OpenHCL 1.7 (release/1.7.2511) branch to reflect its transition into "Ask Mode" - the final scrutiny phase before release closure where only critical fixes are allowed.
Changes:
- Modified the mirror pipeline to update the staging branch (staging/1.7.2511) instead of the release branch (release/1.7.2511) while still mirroring from the release branch

The PR description references the Ask Mode documentation at https://openvmm.dev/guide/dev_guide/contrib/release.html, but this documentation does not explain the concept of staging branches or the workflow change where 'branchToUpdateSubmodule' differs from 'branchToMirror' during Ask Mode. Consider updating the release documentation to explain this pattern so future maintainers understand when and why to use staging branches.
