Kefu Chai e04aca7efe github: do not nest ${{}} inside condition
In commit 2596d157, we added a condition to run auto-backport.py only
when the GitHub Action is triggered by a push to the default branch.
However, this introduced an unexpected error due to incorrect condition
handling.

Problem:
- `github.event.before` evaluates to an empty string
- GitHub Actions' single-pass expression evaluation system causes
  the step to always execute, regardless of `github.event_name`

Despite GitHub's documentation suggesting that ${{ }} can be omitted,
it recommends using explicit ${{}} expressions for compound conditions.

Changes:
- Use explicit ${{}} expression for compound conditions
- Avoid string interpolation in conditional statements

Root Cause:
The previous implementation failed because of how GitHub Actions
evaluates conditional expressions, leading to an unintended script
execution and a 404 error when attempting to compare commits.

Example Error:

```
  python .github/scripts/auto-backport.py --repo scylladb/scylladb --base-branch refs/heads/master --commits ..2b07d93beac7bc83d955dadc20ccc307f13f20b6
