ci: test non java/python plugins on more platforms
Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged as commit a20b49d1: expanded the test-other-plugins CI workflow to cover Jammy/Noble ARM64, s390x, ppc64el and Edge runners (9 files, +78/-21), all checks green.
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: PR #1311 was approved by 2 reviewers and merged to main as commit a20b49d1 ("ci: test non java/python plugins on more platforms"), with all listed CI checks passing. Follow-up flaky-test fixes were merged separately in #1308 and #1316, and a linkcheck lint flake was traced to canonical/starbase#444.

Hey look! There are [Jammy-based ARM runners](https://github.com/actions/partner-runner-images#available-images) now!
NOTE: I don't plan to make the additional workflows required unless I get pushback on that. I'm more interested in "notice that this doesn't work" than "we need to let this finish running before we merge your PR because you fixed a typo in the changelog" for this stuff, so it would be on the person doing the merge to decide about failing tests that don't meet our core requirements. I definitely won't be making s390x or ppc64el required until those are no longer marked as experimental (I don't want CI to fail because there aren't any of those runners available), but I'm happy to discuss our feelings on focal amd64 runners and jammy/noble arm64 runners (I can see arguments both ways for them).
