Working ocaml-camlp5 pairs

[fblanqui]

Please do not merge this PR but keep it open: its purpose is to provide data on working ocaml-camlp5 pairs.

It contains some github action scripts to inventory the pairs ocaml-camlp5 for which hol-light works.

For each camlp5 version, there is a yml script testing the ocaml versions meaningful for this camlp5 version.

Remarks:

• we only test "hol.ml"
• we sometimes need to install the following packages: libipc-system-simple-perl, libstring-shellquote-perl
• github accepts up to 256 jobs maximum

Working pairs found (this may not be exhaustive):

Would it be possible to run holtest instead of simply loading the prelude? That may be too resource-consuming, so maybe a lighter version of holtest can be adapted.

Hi, I have a question about CI. Are they running on a custom server, or Github-hosted server? If the answer is latter, how is it related to the monetary cost for Github CI?

[jrh13]

I really like the principle, but am a bit nervous about the resource usage running it in CI. Currently the hol-light repo only uses whatever is provided in a free Github account. Do you think this is a needless concern?

Hi John. Actually, this PR does not need to be merged: you can just leave it open. I added a comment at the beginning of the PR description about this. CI is launched only if it is updated, which can be done from time to time only.

For its even lighter version I made a pull request here: #85 :) This pull request (#71) will still be valuable because it tracks all valid configurations of ocaml and camlp5.
