CI (Linux)

Build on linux

Should add one for macOS

[kblaschke]

Should also add a build for Windows as well. Due to the large platform differences regarding dependency installation, one YAML file per platform might be a good idea instead of using a matrix. We can then use the build matrix to test different "build styles", e.g. shared and static linking of libprojectM.

On Windows, this will take a long time, as vcpkg compiles all dependencies on each CI run, which will take ~20mins or so at least for POCO and SDL2. I still have to come up with a better solution to use some pre-built binary artifacts of the dependencies. GitHubActions isn't a great artifact store. The best solution I've came up with is to have a repo for the deps, build them (manually) via Actions and create a release archive via vcpklg's export functionality, then download the latest release ZIP here, unpack and use it.

Let's start with whatever's easiest IMO
