We were using quite and old runner on our machines and running into
issues with stalling jobs. Gitlab in the meantime now reliably provide
the latest packaged versions of the runner under a stable URL. This
update:
- creates a per-arch subdir for builds
- switches from binary tarballs to deb packages
- re-uses the same binary for the secondary runner
- updates distro check for second to 22.04
So far I've tested on aarch64.ci.qemu.org but I shall do s390x next as
its having issues with stale runners as well.
