Auto merge of #3189 - RalfJung:ci, r=RalfJung

run the provenance-gc=1 test on all targets, but only for the host tests

No need to slow down *all those tests* running on the Linux host... but lets cover each major OS at least once. We've had bugs that only some macOS-specific code in `getrandom` found, after all.

Let's see how much this affects timing on the macOS / Windows runners.
