To avoid lots of copy and paste lets deal with artefacts in a
template. This way we can filter out most of the pre-binary object and
library files we no longer need as we have the final binaries.
build-system-alpine also saved .git-submodule-status so for simplicity
we bring that into the template as well.
As an example the build-system-ubuntu artefacts before this patch
where around 1.3 GB, after dropping the object files it comes to 970
MB.

This is still kludging the fact that 'make check-qtest' rebuild
the world even if QEMU binaries are present.
Did you try? ... if so, that would kill even more CI minutes, i.e.
it would IMHO be a show-stopper for this patch.
I remember we had to pass all build/ otherwise calling 'make
check-qtest check-tcg' would rebuild the same binaries, it it
was pointless to split the jobs in 2 stages. I might have missed
when that was fixed.
I haven't tried, however I see in Alex job:
$ scripts/git-submodule.sh update $(sed -n '/GIT_SUBMODULES=/ s/.*=//
p' build/config-host.mak)
sed: can't read build/config-host.mak: No such file or directory
$ cd build
/bin/bash: line 144: cd: build: No such file or directory
ERROR: Job failed: exit code 1

That was an older run of the job where I thought the skip path would
merge from the template. In the end I've just include git-submodules in
all the build aretfacts instead of just for alpine.
It ran fine:

Indeed:
https://gitlab.com/stsquad/qemu/-/jobs/3849512800/artifacts/browse/build/
So a good improvement, but I'd prefer having a stricter "only include
what we need" policy rather than "exclude what we don't". The former
will catch missing additions, while the later won't notice until someone
spend time excluding pointless files manually again.
