chore: use ninja for ci build (apache#215)

Our CI runs quite slow, especially on windows, I observed task being
terminated when it hit 30 minutes, not sure if that's the limit of gh
actions.

By using Ninja build, CI goes a lot faster, in general, it can save us
more that 10 minutes in general. For specific jobs, below are some
numbers(unit minutes):

- ASAN 18 -> 7
- Cpp linter 17 -> 7
- Test Mac 13 -> 5
- Test Ubuntu 17 -> 7
- Test Windows 29 -> 17
