Currently, some of the builds produced by the nightly workflow are not consumed on a daily basis. Introduce the `yocto-weekly` build workflow to handle builds that are needed less frequently, reducing the load on nightly builds. Signed-off-by: Viswanath Kraleti <viswanath.kraleti@oss.qualcomm.com>
Remove less frequently tested build variants like KVM, SOTA, and RT kernel from the main build-yocto workflow to reduce CI load. Signed-off-by: Viswanath Kraleti <viswanath.kraleti@oss.qualcomm.com>
