Remove the code related to skipping CI runs if the tree was
successfully tested before. With the GitHub CI this is done with the
"ci-config" step, see e76eec35540 (ci: allow per-branch config for
GitHub Actions, 2020-05-07) and 7d78d5fc1a9 (ci: skip GitHub workflow
runs for already-tested commits/trees, 2020-10-08).

This code hasn't been used since 4a6e4b96026 (CI: remove Travis CI
support, 2021-11-23), and before that for the retired Azure pipeline
support removed in 6081d3898fe (ci: retire the Azure Pipelines
definition, 2020-04-11).

This change is needed because this and subsequent commits are turning
"ci/lib.sh" into a dumber library that'll only be tasked with setting
variables for CI jobs, or for specific steps within those jobs. Now we
don't need to worry about it potentially skipping the run on its own.

This change also removes a subtle potential logic error introduced in
0e7696c64db (ci: disallow directional formatting, 2021-11-04). The
"ci/check-directional-formatting.bash" script would have been made to
run after the "save_good_tree" in invoked in
"ci/run-static-analysis.sh". So if e.g. the "make coccicheck" failed
we'd still mark the tree as good.

I.e. the addition of "ci/check-directional-formatting.bash" didn't
take into account that the various users of the "save_good_tree"
function in ci/*.sh made a hard assumption that they're the only
ci/*.sh script that's being run (and they use "set -e").

This is entirely academic since we weren't actually running this code,
but is something to be careful of if anyone ever needs to resurrect
parts of this.

Finally, the cache_dir="$HOME/none" added in a3f2eec862b (ci/lib:
allow running in GitHub Actions, 2020-04-08) for the GitHub CI can be
removed. It appears to have been added to appease the subsequent
'mkdir -p "$cache_dir"', which wasn't needed in GitHub CI.
