CI: switch to GitHub Actions - step 2: quick test stage

This commit:
* Adds a GH Actions workflow for the CI checks which were previously run on Travis in the `quicktest` stage.
* Removes that part of the `.travis.yml` configuration.

Notes:
1. Previously, this "stage" would run on all `push` events, except when merging to `master` or `develop`.
    The current set-up still does so, with one exception: pushes to `develop` will now use this quicktest instead of the full test.
    `develop` is a protected branch anyhow, so all merges will already have had the full test run in the pull request.
    For merges to `master`, the full Test will still be used as that will generally mean we're getting ready to tag a release and some extra safety checking before a release is not a bad thing.
2. This also updates the "high" PHP version for the "quicktest" against PHPCS `dev-master` from PHP 7.4 to PHP 8.0 by using `latest` which translates to "latest stable PHP release".
