Description
GitHub Actions is easier to use and maintain. For example, GitHub Actions is more popular and widely used, and so more familiar. It's easier to maintain a single system. Also core devs can restart failed GitHub Actions whereas they can't for Azure Pipelines. Both are owned by Microsoft and I believe they run on much the same infra.
There's a lot of duplication of tests between Azure Pipelines and GitHub Actions.
Let's remove the duplicated tests, and move the unique things over to GitHub Actions. For example, patchcheck is only run on AP.
We might not necessarily need to port things directly over, it may be possible to replicate equivalent checks in another way, possible with a pre-commit or Ruff lint rule. Let's evaluate these separately.
