Alex Goodman fdeb78fc19 Speed up unit tests in CI (#5360)
* ci: drop gen-5 instance families from the test runner

m5a runners run the unit suite ~2.3x slower than m8id (15m vs 6.5m for `go test`), and when spot capacity for newer families dries up runs-on falls back to them. Keeping gen-6 through gen-8 leaves a wide spot pool without the slow tail.

* test: shrink decompression bomb fixtures

The bomb and heap-bound tests pushed 100MB-16GB through gzip and parsers, which under `-race` made them the slowest tests in the unit suite. Each now uses the smallest fixture that still separates the bounded path from the unbounded one.

- arch mtree caps are measured at a small cap and scaled to the shipped constants, so raising a cap still fails the budget
- snap and debian bombs expand to 32MB instead of 512MB (4x their 8MB budgets)
- golang ELF bombs still declare 256MB but deliver 64MB
