Subject: [PATCH] CI: move to self-hosted GitHub ARC infrastructure

We are now running the self-hosted testing infrastructure with the help
of GitHub's ARC. This allows us to be more considerate with the
available resources as the VMs are now spawned on demand with the
requested kernel.

For now, we have to print KERNEL_VERSION in a previous job to pick up
the correct kernel. This should be fixed in the future by contributing a
labeling mechanism to GitHub's ARC.
