…p CI (#3975)
Trying out a new convention here for jobs that generate multiple
artifacts at different points in time, and where downstream jobs depend
on just a particular subset of artifacts and don't need to wait for the
entire job. We accomplish this with separate `Input` steps, which we
unblock manually via calls to the buildkite API once particular sets of
artifacts are complete.
We could accomplish the same thing by having multiple build server jobs
focused on particular targets ( this is in fact how it used to work)
but that is quite wasteful of CI resources; in order to build any of
the binaries quickly, we need significant number of cores; but if we
only build particular targets, we don't take advantage I've all those
cores relative to the parallelism a full cabal build gives us. That
would likely be more difficult to maintain as well.

The motivation here is:
- save some CI resources
- make it cleaner/more sensible to do library caching
Since OSS is a dependency of pro, and at the same time the various
executables can be built in parallel, doing this all in the same job
probably is more sensible.
Future improvements: there are separate pro and oss pipelines and one or
the other of those will need to wait unnecessarily while everything
finishes. In practice, currently this isn't a big deal, but we could use
the BuildKite blocking job API to get more fine-grained downstream
triggering.
