CI: a pull request fast lane; the heavy checks run on main (#2278)

Pull requests now run the repository checks, Clippy, the affected
crates' tests in 2 shards, and the doc tests. Windows, the reference
tests and the robustness goldens run on pushes to main and in the
nightly, where a break is fixed forward. This is the split Bevy, Zed
and Ruff use, and it cuts each pull request's CI to about a third.
