Libretime: Bug: Looming Rate Limit on Travis-CI

[hairmare]

Describe the bug
We will most likely be affected by travis-ci only offering a limited free tier going forward.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Use travis-ci with the new free tier for a bit
2. Run into limit
3. Be frustrated

Expected behavior
Not to run into rate limiting when contributing to LibreTime.

LibreTime version:
CI/CD related.

Additional context
Travis recently introduced these limits.

IMHO the obvious solution is a refactor towards using GitHub Actions.

I put the 3.0-release-blocker tag on this since we don't have a generic release blocker label and I'd like to get this fixed before we do the next alpha or beta point release.

+1 for Github actions. They also run much more quickly, so we can get feedback without waiting the 24hra or so that Travis takes to run.

Sounds like a good plan to me.

~It turns out Github Actions' free plan isn't much better than Travis's. It might actually be worse: https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/getting-started-with-github/githubs-products.~

That document says 2000 action minutes for an organisation, which is double the 1000 for travis (as I understand it). The major advantage I see is the faster run times

Ah, okay. I see now.
