Add more ubuntu build runs for CI

[gdevenyi]

Added all currently supported Ubuntu versions and adjusted artifact filenames.

Fixes #43

Untested due to being a "release" action.

[gdevenyi]

Turns out it does run on my fork, testing first.

The available GCCs in 24.04 are different to 22.04 (see https://github.com/actions/runner-images?tab=readme-ov-file#available-images). I assume that means the default GCC changes, and possibly the default C++ standard as well. If 24.04 support is crucial then the first thing to do is to bump the dependencies and see if the latest ITK in vcpkg has already fixed this. Do you have a local 24.04 box available?

[spinicist]

Great to see that QUIT does compile on 20.04 after all.

I'm very happy to add more Linux versions to the CI but I think it best to keep only one binary download, compiled on the oldest available Ubuntu/glibc and the highest version of GCC available within that. As I understand it, that binary will be forward compatible with all later glibcs, so I can't see a reason to have versions compiled on later glibcs as well?

No, not critical here, it looks like the existing build works on 24.04

This is probably the case, depending on how exactly you compile here, I'm not super-familiar with the vspkg/cmake mode. I'm just mirroring what I see in most other software binary releases, one release per version.

Shall I pivot to 20.04 with the latest available GCC as the single builder for this then?

[spinicist]

Should we compromise on a single version compiled on 22.04? 20.04 is out of support now.

[gdevenyi]

Non-commercial extended support for 22.04 ends next year, maybe time to move to 24.04?

[spinicist]

Let's stick with 22.04 for now. Academics are notorious for slow upgrades! I like having the version in the artifact name, it makes it clear to users what they are getting.

Pull request overview

Expands the CI build matrix to produce release artifacts for multiple Ubuntu runner versions, aiming to ensure Linux binaries remain compatible with older GLIBC versions (per #43).

Changes:

• Split the single Ubuntu CI build into separate runs for Ubuntu 24.04, 22.04, and 20.04.
• Adjust Linux artifact names to include the Ubuntu version in the filename.
• Make the Ubuntu apt install non-interactive and ensure make is installed.

Okay, time to leave Github

Right, https://codeberg.org/spinicist/QUIT is live but lacking the CI/actions to create an automatic build. That needs investigating. Once done, this repo will be archived.
