The linux32 job is used to exercise Git on a 32 bit platform. That job uses i386/ubuntu:20.04 though, and that version of Ubuntu is end of life nowadays. Furthermore, Ubuntu has dropped support for 32 bit entirely with the 20.04 release, so we cannot easily upgrade it to a more recent image anymore.
Switch the job over to use i386/debian instead. Note that starting with Debian 13, support for i386 has been reduced [1]. But Debian still releases 32 bit Docker images for the latest release nowadays, so we will have coverage until at least 2030.
