The main idea is to let me discover issues as early as possible, before
new toolchains become default. When a new compiler goes into archive,
this CI test is triggered, although it does not block migrating when the
compiler is not available yet due to "skip-not-installable" restriction.

Testing against default GCC and Clang is already done on buildd trough
the d/rules file and thanks to debhelper(7) which calls to `make test`
during package build. Does it make sense to duplicate the work and do
the same trough autopkgtest(1)?
