fix CI on CyberMask367 base + README invite/support

- e2e: tolerate non-UTF8 make output (errors=replace), fixes
  UnicodeDecodeError that red-lined e2e contracts
- e2e: drop fast-switch/atime gates absent from this tree; skip
  payload-built when no build-sdk elf (sdk-payload job gates it)
- tests: fix stale discord_build_activity arg order + home asset
  cases so host unit tests and ASan pass
- ci: push-only Discord webhook notify via DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL secret
- README: CyberMask367 credit, discord.gg/BWEyfcT7ZQ badge + support
  section, beta-access note, 9.00-13.52 firmware, test-build upgrade
  + nanoDNS exception steps

 After a reboot: re-jailbreak, then enable AutoRun for `orbisrpc` in
 Payload Guest once — it starts itself on every jailbreak after that.
-⚠️Firmware note: Currently tested only on PS4 firmware 9.00. Other firmware versions are not yet confirmed.
+✅ Firmware: confirmed working on 9.00 through 13.52.
+
+**Upgrading test builds:** delete the `/data/orbisRPC` folder from your PS4
+first, then launch the new payload once — it writes a fresh `config.json`.
+Open `/data/orbisRPC/config.json`, put your Discord token in the
+`"token": "SET_ME"` slot, and re-run the payload.
+
+## Support / Community
+
+Questions, test-build feedback, bug reports: join the Discord —
+**[discord.gg/BWEyfcT7ZQ](https://discord.gg/BWEyfcT7ZQ)** — and post in
+`testers-chat`. No need to hunt for the link; this is it.
+
+⚠️ **This is a beta.** Test builds are handed out on the Discord — join the
+server to get beta access.
+
+**Game not showing on Discord?** Your DNS blocker is likely eating Sony's
+TMDB host. Either disable it or add an exception in
+`/data/nanodns/nanodns.ini`:
+
+```ini
