Subject: [PATCH] GHA CI: Use `ubuntu-slim` runner image for low priority tasks

As mentioned briefly in https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/pull/23631#issuecomment-3677881954 & https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/pull/23631#issuecomment-3677940316

Make use of `ubuntu-slim` runner images in our `CI` where applicable/practical.

From https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/runners/github-hosted-runners#single-cpu-runners :
>This type of runner is optimized for automation tasks, issue operations and short-running jobs. They are not suitable for typical heavyweight CI/CD builds.
