Audit the Azure Pipelines build jobs

[ddalcino]

A CI test server, MS hosted, is provided by azure pipelines free plan.

1 Microsoft-hosted job with 1,800 minutes per month for CI/CD and 1 self-hosted job with unlimited minutes per month.

aqtinstall consumed 336 build minutes in total 360 build minutes in this month in my projects.

Maybe it's time to audit the jobs we have and remove anything that's not really high value. I just added 6 new jobs in #648, for a total of 49 Azure builds by my count. I'm sure we can find a few that we don't need anymore.

One reasonable approach for pruning this list is to cut out versions of Qt 5 that are not LTS versions (5.9, 5.12, and 5.15). At present, Qt 5 hasn't been supported for a long time, but LTS versions 5.15 and 5.12 have received updates fairly recently. Qt 5.9 hasn't had support for a long time, but it's still fairly popular, and there are some edge cases that are only true for Qt 5.9, so IMHO it's worth testing.

Personally, I would advocate examining the non-LTS Qt 5 versions to see if they can be removed, particularly if they aren't testing anything that's already being tested elsewhere.

I have an idea that we define two CI jobs.

1. every days master and Pull-Request check that reduce numbers. (Is it engough with GH-actions ?)
2. full test periodically (monthly?), and run just before release manually.

Just proposed #735 to update CI trigger and schedule

• Add more conditions for GitHub actions on Pull-Request and push to master
• Weekly schedule for full matrix execution
