GH Actions: speed up slow jobs by using Linux Arm64

GitHub has made Linux arm64 runners generally available and running tasks on these images instead of the traditional images can deliver up to a 40% performance boost.

As the fast majority of end-users won't be using Arm yet, I'm not (yet) switching all Linux builds to Arm runners, but for now, I think it makes sense to try and speed up the build by using these images for the slowest builds (PHP 5.4).
