shouldn't this be project-tests-off?

I totally agree the labels suck, but I really have trouble following our rules (Many of which I wrote myself - lol)
Alternative:
- Create two different workflows that both call a job in a shared workflow.
- The shared workflow takes inputs that decide what to run (what OS, and what scope of tests).
So the jobs in non-main can be named:
- Basic tests on mac
- All tests on linux
On main:
- All tests on (mac|linux)
(under the hood, each of these is just calling some shared jobs in another workflow which is never triggered directly).
This should really simplify names and also remove much of the exclude logic which is hard to grok.

I agree that improving the labels is good, but lines like this make my head spin :(

@mikeland73 some refactoring like that seems called for. I'll circle back to doing that in a bit.
Will land this for now, so at least we get rid of boolean labels.

Summary
Motivation
The name summary for
cli-testsin the Github PR page is:This isn't very helpful.
This PR:
booleansand changes their true/false states to explicit namesdevbox-json-teststoproject-testsfor brevity.How was it tested?
will observe the testscripts pass...
Now, it looks like:
which is much more understandable.
