Homebrew attempts to check for outdated dependents or those with broken
linkage. Such behavior might lead to failures when Homebrew updates them
on old macOS images.
This change prevents such behavior.
The GHA VS installation includes its own vcpkg package manager, which is
available since VS 17.6. This change avoids any ambiguity about which
copy of vcpkg we run.
88c8e3a0e4d6bee015a348536c6e12a2c7835896 github actions: Fix test-one-commit when parent of head is merge commit (Ryan Ofsky)
Pull request description:
Instead of figuring out the commit *after* the last merge and rebasing on that with a ~1 suffix, just figure out the last merge commit directly and rebase on it. This way, if HEAD happens to be a merge commit, the rebase just succeeds immediately without blank variables or errors.
Explanation of the problem from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28497#issuecomment-1743430631:
> The problem is that the PR only contains a one commit after the last merge, so the job _should_ be skipped, but the `pull_request.commits != 1` check is not smart enough to skip it because the PR is based on another PR and has merge ancestor commits. So specifically what happens is that after HEAD~ is checked out, the new HEAD is a merge commit, so the range `$(git log --merges -1 --format=%H)..HEAD` is equivalent to HEAD..HEAD, which is empty, so the `COMMIT_AFTER_LAST_MERGE` variable is empty and the rebase command fails.
Note: In the current version of this PR, the "test each commit" job is skipped, because this PR only contains a single commit. But I manually verified the code works in earlier versions of the PR that included dummy commits.

fafcd2e9ef1209d614de5763a2733098537919dd ci: Add test-each-commit task (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Currently, if a pull request has more than one commit, previous commits may fail to compile, or may fail the tests. This is problematic, because it breaks git-bisect, or worse.
Fix this by adding a CI task for this.

e7d67efd13f83ba9a6f6e62cb6d12ce37716a404 ci: Use concurrency for pull requests only (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
This PR is an amendment for https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28282.
It avoids skipping builds when some pushes were done consequentially:

From GitHub Actions [docs](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-jobs/using-concurrency):
> When a concurrent ... workflow is queued, if another ... workflow using the same concurrency group in the repository is in progress, the queued ... workflow will be pending. **Any previously pending ... workflow in the concurrency group will be canceled.**
No behavior change for pull requests:

The exact distro name should not be important. Also, it is easy to find
out, if needed. Thus, remove it to avoid bloat and maintenance overhead
having to keep it in sync.

Pull request description:
Seems odd to use `CI_USE_APT_INSTALL == no` as an alias for `CI_OS_NAME == macos`. Fix this by removing the alias.
Also, for github CI:
* restore MAKEJOBS to the same value as in cirrus.yml.
* remove cirrus-only PACKAGE_MANAGER_INSTALL.
* remove redundant TEST_RUNNER_TIMEOUT_FACTOR
* Add M1 link
