[00/10] A couple of CI improvements

Message

Hi,

this patch series addresses a couple of issues I've found while
investigating flaky CI jobs. Besides two more fixes for flaky jobs it
also removes some stale code and simplifies the setup on GitHub Actions
to always use containerized jobs on Linux.

Test runs can be found for GitLab [1] and GitHub [2].

Thanks!

Patrick

I left comments on two patches, but the rest seemed fine to me (and I am
very happy to see cleanup of old/stale code).
