ci: use -slim runner for small jobs

No need to spin up full VM runners for small automation tasks, when we
can use single-CPU runners in containers instead.

https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/runners/github-hosted-runners#single-cpu-runners

(some of this will potentially not work, because dependencies in the
slim image might not be available - however, it makes no sense to create
this as a PR, because all jobs touched here run on branches only. Thus
pushing directly to main)
