[20_0_X] Disable RelVal workflows that read existing non-RAW files

[makortel]

PR description:

This PR is part of integrating the changes from the EVOLUTION_X branch to the master branch in CMSSW_20_0_X. It disables RelVal workflows that read existing non-RAW files, that will not be readable in 20_0_X.

Following the strategy agreed in ORP 2026-05-05, it is opened already now to allow it to be reviewed such that it could be merged quickly when the master branch moves to 20_0_X.

Note unusual integration: This PR will be merged in 20_0_X regardless of the review status unless major flaws come up during the review and they have not been addressed.

Resolves cms-sw/framework-team#2226

PR validation:

None beyond the tests of EVOLUTION_X IBs

@cms-sw/pdmv-l2 If any of the Run 1-3 specific workflows are worth of keeping for Phase 2, we could also remove them now instead of commenting them out if you'd prefer.

@cmsbuild, please test with cms-sw/cms-bot#2753

This PR should be testable after disabling few workflows on the cms-bot side (not very useful in the end, but let's demonstrate nevertheless).
