fix: data race condition causing incorrect shell on a task step if it referenced a matrix variable (#865)
The `setupShell` function would update the shell stored on the `Step` object, setting it to either a default value from the job, an expression evaluated in the context of the job, a default from the workflow, or finally falling back to bash or powershell defaults.  Typically this would be fine -- although it would trigger the data race detector because the `Step` is a shared object between multiple concurrent matrix evaluations for the job.

In the *really quite unlikely* case that the `shell` field on a step or job referenced a matrix variable, this data race would actually trigger the shared step's `Shell` value to end up as "whichever one was evaluated last", causing the wrong shell to be used.  The new `matrix-shell` test triggers this behavior, and fails without the associated code fix.

As a fix, the `Shell` field in `Step` is never mutated; instead only the value on non-shared `stepRun` instance is updated from `setupShellCommand`.  `Shell` was renamed to `RawShell` as part of verifying all references were updated and it seemed to make sense to keep that name since it is a pre-evaluator value.

```
