Recently Cirrus CI changed its free limits for open source. The idea behind this PR is to minimise the usage via a "fail fast" approach. The changes can be summarised as follows: 1. Run "build" and "check" inside the same container, so we save the time to spawn a separated container. 2. Decrease the amount of Linux containers used. I left the lower and upper limits for the Python version in PR builds and added an intermediary version to the master/main branch. 3. Wait until the Linux tests pass before running more expensive ones (Windows, OS X, FreeBSD).
