  1. build: Switch to ubuntu-latest for builds 

    This code does not have any dependencies that are specific to any specific
version of ubuntu.  So instead of testing on a specific version and then needing
to do work to keep the versions up-to-date, we switch to the ubuntu-latest
target which should be sufficient for testing purposes.

This work is being done as a part of openedx/platform-roadmap#377

closes #35314

  2. build: Run mongosh commands within the container. 

    This is no longer installed by default on ubuntu and so we have to
either manually install it or just run the relevant commands in the
container here it's already available. This lets us do some of the test
setup in a more robust way.

  3. fix: Don't start the mongo service. 

    We stopped using mongo on the runner directly a while ago so this is
just an errant start that should have been removed.

  4. build!: enable md4 for testing. 

    Operators Note: In newer versions of ubuntu the MD4 hashing algorithm
is disabled by default.  To enable it the openssl config needs to be
updated in a manner similar to what's being done here.  Alternatively,
you can set the `FEATURES['ENABLE_BLAKE2B_HASHING']` setting to `True`
which will switch to a newer hashing algorithm where MD4 was previously
used.

Because this hashing is being used as a part of the edx-platform caching
mechanism, this will effectively clear the cache for the items that use
this hash. The will impact any items where the cache key might have been
too big to store in memcache so it's hard to predict exactly which items
will be impacted.

BREAKING CHANGE: See the operator note above for more details as this
may break for users transitioning from Ubuntu 20.04 to newer versions.
