[PATCH v1 4/6] CI: make test-artifacts branch/job customizable

[Marek Marczykowski-Górecki <marmarek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Allow choosing which artifacts branch and job to use for Linux. This
allows running the same tests for different Linux versions, without
duplicating a lot of yaml sections.

I have considered common LINUX_JOB and then add architecture suffix, but
even now X86 and ARM use different jobs, so I made them separate.
