Add Github Actions Workflow

#7 (comment)

Splitting from #7 so it can be closed separately.

Me:

Please add Github Actions workflows to test privleap installation. Github does not make available Debian images, only Ubuntu images, but you can run Debian docker images from the Ubuntu images.

privleap should work on Ubuntu out of the box, so an Ubuntu image may be enough. Failing that, I'd rather use a Debian 12 VM than a docker image, I think the actions runners supports nested virt though, I'm not entirely sure.

• Test package installation, including systemd functionality
• Test package functionality with the tests

See example.

I took another swing at this, after my rather old first attempt at just running autopkgtest using the unshare backend directly under Ubuntu. This time around I tried to run it under Debian, inside a Docker container. While I was able to get this to work locally, unfortunately I could not get it to work on Github Actions (it either failed complaining that input was not a TTY, or had a permission error trying to write to /dev/stderr), so this is still unsolved for now. You can see what my attempt looked like on the arraybolt3/test branch. Next time I'll likely try to run the tests directly under Docker, rather than relying on autopkgtest.
