Test multiple OpenFOAM versions (cron / on-demand) #242

As we now support more and more OpenFOAM versions (see also https://github.com/precice/openfoam-adapter/pull/128), it would be very helpful to have an automatic check that any changes in the OpenFOAM adapter (and only there), do not break compatibility with any of the supported OpenFOAM versions.

Needed OpenFOAM versions

In my view, we need to test the following versions only for building:

Needed test cases

In terms of cases, it is enough to check the following cases with some otherwise non-checked version (e.g. latest Foundation):

Implementation

It would be enough if this runs once per day/week and we definitely don't need automatic triggering from other repositories.

This could also be a nice way to start experimenting with the GitHub Actions for the system tests, as it could be independent and not interfere with the rest of the tests.

Technically, for all the Foundation versions there are Debian packages (for different Ubuntu versions per version) and for all the OpenCFD versions there are official Docker images.
