It has been a while, but coming back to this now...

I agree, we have a lot of such option files, but after checking them
all again: They all have a unique purpose.

We don't have a single CI/CT option file because the qemu test targets
are different in comparison to the real board targets. We do not boot
up a "disk"/wic image, we pass a kernel image to qemu.

Without introducing opt-ci.yml I would have to spread the ci
optimizations into several board specific configs, which would enable
the ci optimization for "real board builds" as well. That is not what
we want.

Further ideas?

What about introducing a ci image? Does that make sense? The content
would nearly be the same as within opt-ci.yml now.
