Use actions? #8

Elixir sometimes breaks things in new versions, I would like to catch this in time. One idea I have is

• Run a runner on a monthly basis
• It checks on latest Alpine (or other distro with "recent" packages)
• Run mix test --warnings-as-errors
  • If this fails => fail and I need to get an email (can some custom message be added somehow? Problem should be fixed with newest Elixir, and best also run mix format)

I have turned on Actions already, but still have to figure out how to do it. See documentation at

• Codeberg: https://docs.codeberg.org/ci/actions/
• Forgejo: https://forgejo.org/docs/latest/user/actions/overview/

Other actions can also be added later, like allowing to run mix test --warnings-as-errors and format mix format --check-formatted on latest Elixir. On oldest supported Elixir it should run mix test.

See branch "add_runner". Codeberg has a runner => good. But I'm unsure how/if running a custom image is possible. I've played a bit, but I fear what I want to do here requires my own runners. I don't think I'm at the point where it's worth it, so I'm not spending more time on it now, but it's nice to see the the Actions in action and have some first experiences with it.
