CI: use smaller machines in PR runs
mingw-check job-linux-16c -> job-linux-4c
~job-linux-4c 20 min in auto job
~job-linux-16c 13 min in pr job
with current pr regressed to almost 21 min, it's ok.
mingw-check-tidy job-linux-16c -> job-linux-4c small enough, so reduce to minimal
~ job-linux-16c 3 min
with current pr regressed to almost 5 min, it's ok.
x86_64-gnu-tools job-linux-16c this is top job by time in PR, so don't touch it
~ job-linux-8c 1.30 hour in auto job
~ job-linux-16c 1 hour in pr job (affected by #114613, actual time ~ 30 min)
x86_64-gnu-llvm-15 job-linux-16c don't change too
~ job-linux-8c 1.30 hour in auto job
~ job-linux-16c 30 min in pr job
Noticed while working on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/114621, so current time affected by always rebuilded docker images (but pr images always rebuilded before too, so nvm)
CI: include workflow name in concurrency group
Currently, this won't change anything, because we only have one relevant workflow (`CI`), but for future proofing we should probably include the workflow name in the concurrency group.
Found by ``@klensy`` [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/113059#discussion_r1247213606).

Github action to periodically `cargo update` to keep dependencies current
Opens a PR periodically with the results of `cargo update`. If an unmerged PR for the branch `cargo_update` already exists, it will edit then reopen it if necessary.
~~This also uses [`cargo-upgrades`](https://gitlab.com/kornelski/cargo-upgrades) to provide a list of available major upgrades in the PR body.~~
It includes the list of changes output by `cargo update` in the commit message and PR body. Note that this output is currently sub-optimal due to https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/9408, but if updates are made more regularly that is less likely to show up.
Example PR: https://github.com/pitaj/rust/pull/2
Example action run: https://github.com/pitaj/rust/actions/runs/5035731903
Prior discussion: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/242791-t-infra/topic/dependabot.20updates.3F
Up for discussion:
- What period do we want? Currently weekly
- What user should it use? Currently "Github Actions"
- Do we need the extra security of provided by executing `cargo update` and `cargo-upgrades` in a separate job?
If not I can simplify it to not need artifacts.
- PR message wording
- PR should probably always be `rollup=always`?
- What branch should it use?
- What should it do if no updates are available? Currently fails the job on empty commit
- Should the yml file live in `src/ci` instead of directly under workflows?
- ~~Is using the latest nightly toolchain enough to ensure compatibility with `Cargo.lock` and `Cargo.toml`s in master?~~
Now pulls the bootstrap version from stage0.json
r? infra
- Keep Cargo.lock dependencies current
- Presents output from `cargo update` in commit and PR
- Edit existing open PR, otherwise open a new one
- Skip if existing open PR is S-waiting-on-bors
Remove aws cli install.
All runner images have the AWS CLI 2 installed, so there isn't a really strong reason to install our own version anymore.
The version we were installing was 1.27.122. The runner images currently have 2.11.x (the exact version varies by image).
I do not have the means to really test if the new version has any issues. I looked at all the `aws` commands, and none of them seem to be doing anything unusual. The page at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cliv2-migration-changes.html contains a list of all the breaking changes, and I didn't see anything that looked important.
Optimize builder sizes
The infra-team is continuously monitoring the efficiency of the CI system in an effort to improve overall build times and resource usage. Some builders have used much less than their allocated resources, so we are testing smaller builder sizes for them.

Like #107044, this will let us track compatibility with LLVM 16 going
forward, especially after we eventually upgrade our own to the next.
This also drops `tidy` here and in `x86_64-gnu-llvm-15`, syncing with
that change in #106085.
These builders aren't particularly high on overall average CPU usage and finish in typically around
30 minutes. Cutting their core counts will hopefully not significantly increase wall-time while
cutting costs, allowing us to shift some of the wins into our slower builders.
For now this keeps all the configuration identical (AFAICT) but we'll
likely want to play with the specifics to move some of the slower
builders to larger machines and the faster builders to smaller machines,
likely reducing overall usage and improving CI times.
