Problem

Cross-platform build system CI checks are running more frequently than we'd like or need.

Solution

Only run cross-platform build system CI check against specific branches like:

^main$
^master$
^develop$
^test/v.*
^release/.*

Steps to Test

1. Create a branch named like release/this-is-a-test
2. Rebase against this branch and push to remote
3. Verify that the test-build-system is triggered and runs in CircleCI
4. Create a branch named test/this-should-not-trigger-workflow
5. Rebase against this branch and push to remote
6. Verify that the test-build-system is NOT triggered in CircleCI

(CI Pipeline)

FYI here's an example of the workflow being triggered (run 592) and being skipped (run 594):

Since all Device OS releases are tested with the following branch naming scheme, could you please add:

        - matches:
            pattern: "^test/v.*"
            value: << pipeline.git.branch >>

LGTM, thanks! 🎉
