This refactors the CI workflows to group some
logic and makes sure that all (pre)release
binaries are actually tested.
The screenshot below shows the execution logic of
the reworked ci,
https://github.com/Disservin/Stockfish/actions/runs/7773581379.
You can also hover over the cards to see the
execution flow.
The `matrix.json` and `arm_matrix.json` define the
binaries which will be uploaded to GitHub.
Afterwards a matrix is created and each job
compiles a profile guided build for that arch and
uploads that as an artifact to GitHub. The
Binaries/ARM_Binaries workflow's are called when
the previous step has been completed, and uploads
all artifacts to the (pre)release.
This also fixes some indentations and renames the
workflows, see
https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/actions,
where every workflow is called `Stockfish` vs
https://github.com/Disservin/Stockfish/actions. It
also increases the parallel compilation used for
make from `-j2 to -j4`.
It now also prevents the prerelease action from
running on forks.

No functional change
allows for building x86-64-avx2 and x86-64-bmi2 binaries for mac
install coreutils
show hardware capabilities as seen by the compilers
move some tests from sse41 to avx2 as platforms support it

Explicitly describe the architecture as deprecated,
it remains available as its current alias x86-64-sse41-popcnt
CPUs that support just this instruction set are now years old,
any few years old Intel or AMD CPU supports x86-64-avx2. However,
naming things 'modern' doesn't age well, so instead use explicit names.
Adjust CI accordingly. Wiki, fishtest, downloader done as well.

- loop through the commits starting from the latest one
- read the bench value from the last match, if any, of the template
in the commit body text

Github Actions allows us to use up to 20 workers.
This way we can launch multiple different checks
at the same time and optimize the overall time
the CI takes a bit.
