Also run tests on self-hosted kvm runner

kvm is the recommended backend for fakemachine; Unfortunately github hosted runners don't always support virtualization[0]. Luckily the debos organisation now has a kvm supported self-hosted runner sponsored by Collabora, so use that for kvm tests. This also simplifies the matrix properties for jobs, moving their quirks into expressions instead. Simple tests for building non-debian distributions (arch, apertis) are now ran on kvm as well 0: The github-hosted runners are sometimes the documented intel xeon based-instance type without virt support.. and sometimes amd epyc with virt support.
