Yggdrasil [AZP] Try to load the package before registration

Fix #594. However we probably want to have a way to skip this step when we know that this is going to fail, like some LLVM versions

I think we can hardcode the list of packages for which we want to skip this.

I just realised that this is probably on the same vein as #705

Can we make this a separate AZP job? That way we can continue to skip the whole registration job on PRs, while still testing that a PR is loadable.

We can create a .ci/test_jll.jl script that only downloads the x86_64-linux-gnu artifacts, generates only that JLL, then tries to load it.

We have long ago switch from AZP to BuildKite. Is there anything salvageable in here or should we close it?
