Unbreak android CI by moving to ubuntu-latest (#57216)

Backport of #57216 to 0.86-stable.

Move CI jobs off the timing-out 4-core-ubuntu / 8-core-ubuntu runners
to ubuntu-latest across the Android, fantom, build and publish
workflows. macOS runners are unchanged.

This is the equivalent of upstream commit
097dbc2; applied manually because the
workflow files have diverged on this branch and a direct cherry-pick
conflicts.
