ci: port Vagrant Fedora Rawhide test to GitHub Actions

Cirrus CI reports "Failed to start an instance:
FAILED_PRECONDITION: Monthly compute limit exceeded!" making the
Vagrant Fedora Rawhide test unusable.

Replace the Cirrus CI Vagrant-based Fedora Rawhide test with a
Lima VM-based equivalent in GitHub Actions. This follows the same
pattern used by the runc project (lima-vm/lima-actions).

The new vagrant-fedora-rawhide-test job:
- Starts a Lima Fedora VM with KVM acceleration
- Installs the latest vanilla kernel
- Reboots the VM to activate the new kernel
- Runs the fedora-rawhide CI target inside a podman container
