Work around the issue with pip install -e on GitHub Ubuntu runners

Pin the GitHub runners to `ubuntu-20.04`. Long term solutions should be
explored at some point in the future.

This fixes an issue that arises due to the crossover of three different
problems:

1. Ubuntu 22.04 will be used by default on 'ubuntu' runners on GitHub runners
   (actions/runner-images#6399).

2. Ubuntu 22.04 ships with `setuptools` version 59.x.x, which has a bug that
   does not allow an `--editable` installation of packages in `--user` mode.
   The flag `--user` is presumed regardless, as the location with packages is
   not writable by normal users (see pypa/pip#7953
   and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/setuptools/+bug/1994016).

3. We need an `--editable` installation in order to run tests, as the
   `test_data` folder is loaded with respect to the package root, and
   not the test root (see for example:
   https://github.com/xsuite/xpart/blob/45d621ad060bc25d361835bde1ed985609a24c49/tests/test_single_rf_harmonic_matcher.py#L25)
