Noted that we previously weren't testing on any Ubuntu platforms. ubuntu1804-arm64 was defined in the 'os` matrix but never used.
Do you plan on opening a "Build Failure" ticket for this? If so, let's add a ticket reference here.
I don't feel strongly about it as the OS matrix is more relevant for PHPC than PHPLIB.

I'm happy to slim down the OS matrix as the platform is more relevant to PHPC than PHPLIB. For PHPLIB, I'd say the important systems are Ubuntu and Debian, as those are were most people run their applications.
An important difference are docker users, where Alpine is a popular choice, but that's not available. I'll note that the standard images (e.g. php-cli) are built on Debian, so we have those covered.

FYI, PHPC-1555 is an old tracking ticket to add Alpine, which we had to resolve as "Won't Fix" due to missing support in Evergreen. If we can get Alpine working in GitHub actions then perhaps we can revisit this down the line.

As per suggestions, I have slimmed down the OS matrix, omitting RHEL 7 and RHEL 8 completely as the platform doesn't have an impact on the library. We're testing on RHEL 9, which also doesn't have the certificate problem I saw on earlier RHEL versions.

@alcaeus Will you be creating a ticket for "KMS servers fail to start on Ubuntu 20.04"?

I wanted to grab a fresh copy of the error message, but the patch I created for that purpose succeeded: https://spruce.mongodb.com/version/64ad54d157e85a3f891c1afe/tasks?sorts=STATUS%3AASC%3BBASE_STATUS%3ADESC
I'm now running a new patch on all Ubuntu 20.04 platforms - if that succeeds I'll add them in here; otherwise I'll create a ticket to have it looked at.

If we intend to resolve this, I'd suggest opening a "Build Failure" ticket and referencing it here.

While I'm not convinced we need to test on RHEL here, this matrix exposed problems installing extensions via PECL due to SSL issues. I'm not sure how relevant that is, but maybe @remicollet can shed some light on how popular installing via PECL is (and maybe even what the source of the certificate errors is).

Do you have details on the SSL error running pecl install? He's probably need to see that to provide any insight.

Just tested it and don't encounter any issue with pecl command on RHEL 7.

Probably very popular as RHEL only provide a very minimal set of extensions in its repository, so user can only use the pecl way (or switch to an alternative provider, but without support from RH)

Thanks @remicollet for confirming. I'll check with our build team to see what's going on with our build hosts.

This PR updates the build pipeline to test on supported platforms:
The main tests are currently disabled for RHEL 7.6 and Ubuntu 20.04. Ubuntu 20.04 has issues with the "Start KMS servers" task due to dependency conflicts that I'll have to investigate separately. RHEL 7.6 has issues installing the extension via PECL as it fails with an SSL error when attempting to connect to pecl.php.net. I suspect a certificate problem but need to investigate further.
