   > I noticed several terms used across different configurations: 
ubuntu-latest, ubuntu-slim, arc-light-linux, and linux. What do these each 
refer to? I guess they might refer to different type of runner. It’s a bit 
confusing because their meanings seem to overlap, and they appear to be used 
somewhat interchangeably.
   
   Thanks for flagging this. Please also refer to Pr description for their 
meanings.
   
   Basically these are different runner labels:
   - `ubuntu-latest` and `ubuntu-slim` are GitHub runner labels. We cannot 
change them. 
   - self-hosted ones are prefixed with `arc-`. And light, medium and heavy are 
different runner type with different resources. 
   
   `'Linux'` is a os type. The above runners are all this type.
   
   They are not used interchangeably. The script is doing selection on which 
runner to use, depending on what's available. For example, when github runners 
are all queued up and not available, we can switch to self-hosted ones. When 
self-hosted ones are not available, we fall back to github default ones.
