[TASK] Use simplier and working checkout ref determination

With the introduction of non-main branch scheduled workflow
execution a adjusted checkout part in the `ci.yml` workflow
file has been added to allow to define which branch should
be checked out.

That breaks pipeline execution for pull-requests opened from
repository forks.

This change replaces the old detection with a more simplified
implementation, only setting the custom ref in case of github
workflow_dispatch event execution using `''` as fallback which
allows custom branch selection for workflow dispatching while
keeping default repostiory and branch checkout intact.
