Issue
Experimentally use Github actions as a new CI system.
Description of changes
Run new CI alongside Travis and Appveyor to test how it behaves.
Known downsides:
Update: Previous running jobs are cancelled if a new commit is pushed to the same PR 👍
Github action is not as feature reach as other systems because it was released not long ago. So I noticed that currently there is no officially supported way to cancel "stale" commits in a certain branch. Potentially this could be a problem. I hope there will soon be support for this. For now, we could use some third-party solutions that use Github public APIs (did not test those yet).
