With Python 3.7 asynchronous tests randomly fail
with "RuntimeError: Event loop is closed" during shutdown.
Backtrace of the error includes `SafeChildWatcher` calls.
Python 3.8 has replaced `SafeChildWatcher`
with a new `ThreadedChildWatcher` by default [1]
as a bugfix for
"asyncio.create_subprocess_exec() only works with main event loop" bug [2].
Python 3.7 scheduled end of life is 2023-06-27
according to <https://devguide.python.org/versions/>.

With this, all the builds happen in parallel in 3-6 minutes,
and then python tests run for 8-9 minutes.
Before, it was 6-17 minutes for compilation,
then 19-31 minutes for python tests.
Compilation of the library and test binary was not parallelized,
and then python tests included async python tests
and deltachat-rpc-server binary compilation.
Now, deltachat-rpc-server compilation,
Rust testing and async python tests are separate jobs.
This way if flaky python tests fail,
it is possible to rerun them without having to rerun library compilation.
Python test jobs will redownload already built library artifact
and compile the bindings against it.
cargo-zigbuild is replaced with a simple zig-cc wrapper.
cargo-zigbuild still tries to use i386-linux-musl triple,
while in zig 0.11 x86-linux-musl should be used [1].
This also gives us more control over compilation flags used
and prevents changes due to cargo-zigbuild upgrades,
as its version was not pinned.

This adds more configuration to cargo-deny so that the output is not a
giant list of warnings hiding new entries. Instead the config now
lists the things that would emit warnings. It also adds -Dwarnings to
the CI job so that new warnings will be cleaned up: they can be added
to the config easily to fix the warnings.
scripts/update-provider-database.sh checks out the provider database
and updates data.rs file,
making it easier to update.
CI uses this script to check that checked in data.rs
corresponds to the provider database repository.
