test: don't use `-cpu max` in GH Actions
There appears to be an issue with newer QEMU versions (spotted with Arch Linux and C9S containers) which causes the respective GH Action to hang when booting a QEMU VM in combination with the `-cpu max` parameter. During (a particularly painful) debugging session I once managed to get some output from such "frozen" machine (using `earlycon` and `earlyprintk` kernel cmdline options), and in that particular case the VM died with a trap caused by an invalid opcode. I couldn't reproduce this locally, only in GH Actions environment with Arch Linux and C9S containers. Also, so far I haven't found out which specific CPUID flag causes this, but using the `IvyBridge-v2` feature set seems to mitigate the issue.master
