npm is a security hole one can drive a truck through :)
Additionally, I just realized that "nuget" downloads native iasl and
nasm binaries ("BaseTools/Bin/iasl_extdep/Linux-x86/iasl",
"BaseTools/Bin/mu_nasm_extdep/Linux-x86-64/nasm").
This basically requires me to trust two package repositories (npmjs.org,
nuget.org) that, well, I don't trust.
This is *not* criticism of the CI system; it only means that running it
locally on my laptop needs more work from me. In particular, it requires
spinning up a VM that I don't use for anything else.
Given the typing / clicking / scripting necessary for this, and the
network-originated updates for the "in VM" CI system, I wonder if
running CI locally actually saves me any time.
One thing it would certainly give me is "confidentiality", as I wouldn't
have to push my branch to github (for a personal CI build PR) before I
were ready to submit the set for real.
I think I'll set up a new libvirt/QEMU/KVM domain for this, and report
back with more results once I have them.

Yes, I'll check that.
Thanks!
