Add a basic GitHub Actions CI workflow

[nickcharlton]

This is the closest absolute conversation from the original CircleCI 2.0 version as possible. Main differences:

• Actions' Postgres container requires a password or otherwise doesn't start (see SO answer),
• Ports are explicitly exported,
• Actions has a stronger, built-in approach to service health,
• Using the "global" environment variables stops us having to repeat the Postgres config multiple times,

This is currently blocked on us merging https://github.com/thoughtbot/appraisal/pull/174.

Is this something that should be incorporated? https://github.com/thoughtbot/administrate/pull/1967

[nickcharlton]

I'm going to do the Dependabot migration before coming back to this (i.e.: today).

[nickcharlton]

This is now back up to date again, using a similar approach to how we've been running appraisals on certain Ruby versions by skipping Rails 6.0 above Ruby 3.0.

I think string comparisons are fine here, but other ideas welcome.

I don't plan to merge this until I've cut a new release of Appraisal, so once that's done our CI checks will take even longer until I disable CircleCI.

[nickcharlton]

Okay, so, 2 years later, I was able to get Appraisal working on GitHub Actions and then do a release. And now I've had enough time to tidy this up and finally merge it.

I'll open a PR soon to remove Circle CI, but it'll be a while before it's gone completely.
