ci: Speed up tests by writing test data to tmpfs
It seems like part of our slowness in CI systems boils down to all the
data we're writing. The I/O seemingly causes quite some disk contention
and thus slows the tests down.
Convert our tests to use tmpfs. For uncached test runs this decreases
the test execution time from around 579 to 509 seconds, which is more
than a minute and thus considered a (small) win.
