[CI] backport strategy must fail when it conflicts
strategy: ort

The strategy is changed from "recursive" to "ort", which is the
default for git >= 2.43.2 and claims to reduce the likelyhood of
conflicts according to man git-merge:

> This has been reported to result in fewer merge conflicts without
> causing mismerges...

strategy-option: find-renames

The default option are the same for both strategies and "theirs" will:

> This option forces conflicting hunks to be auto-resolved
> cleanly by favoring their version.

"their" being whatever is not in the commits being cherry-picked.

In the context of Forgejo backports, this is not what is desired:
whenever a conflict happens it needs to be manually resolved and
prefering whatever is in the stable branch will not lead to a sane
backport.

It is changed back to "find-renames" which is documented to be the
default:

> Turn on rename detection, optionally setting the similarity
> threshold. This is the default.
