GHA/linux: split valgrind jobs to job-pairs for parallelism, to finish in 10m

To make CI turnaround time shorter, by cutting the longest running jobs.
After this patch all jobs should finish around 10-11 minutes. Down from
15-16 minutes before this patch.

Suggested-by: Stefan Eissing

The fuzzing workflow is now the slowest (with a 7-minute startup time
needed to build deps from source on each run), followed by macOS
and Windows torture tests (both split in two now). Without fuzzing, it's
under 10 minutes.

Notes:
- an extra cost with job-pairs is installing prereqs,
  configuring/building curl and tests twice. GitHub doesn't support
  making a matrix job a prereq for another workflow that may fix this:
    https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/42335
  This overhead is significant on Windows: 11m20 -> 9m20 + 8m40
- job-pairs are annoying to maintain and keep in sync.
- splitting tests into halves is a manual process and needs to be
  revisited from time to time. Possibly something to automate with
  a runtests option, e.g. with `1 of 50%` and `2 of 50%`?

Also:
- split torture tests in two equal pieces, replacing the `FTP` + `!FTP`
  split used earlier.

Related perf improvements from today:
- make scan-build 2x fast:

- drop build-only Testi386 fuzz workflow (from curl), saving 9m per run:
