[PATCH v2 05/10] github: simplify computation of the job's distro

From: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im>
Date: Jan 6, 2025, 11:16 UTC
Message-ID: <20250106-b4-pks-ci-fixes-v2-5-06ae540771b7@pks.im>
In-Reply-To: <20250106-b4-pks-ci-fixes-v2-0-06ae540771b7@pks.im>

We explicitly list the distro of Linux-based jobs, but it is equivalent to the name of the image in almost all cases, except that colons are replaced with dashes. Drop the redundant information and massage it in our CI scripts, which is equivalent to how we do it in GitLab CI.

There are a couple of exceptions:

  - The "linux32" job, whose distro name is different than the image
    name. This is handled by adapting all sites to use the new name.

  - The "alpine" and "fedora" jobs, neither of which specify a tag for
    their image. This is handled by adding the "latest" tag.
