Subject: [PATCH] fix: use GitHub App token for auto-merge workflow

Generate GitHub App token using GH_DOCS_SYNC_APP_ID and GH_DOCS_SYNC_APP_PRIVATE_KEY secrets. Use the app token instead of GITHUB_TOKEN for both close-superseded and auto-merge steps to ensure downstream workflow triggers (sdk_publish.yaml) after merge. This aligns token usage with typescript-sdk and go-sdk implementations.
