Re: CI: 'seen' minus a few passes tests, eh, almost

It is sad that the tip of 'seen' rarely passes all tests these days.

I excluded a few topics (chosen primarily by prejudice after looking
at which tests failed earlier, without locating exactly where and
why they fail) from 'seen' and the exclusion of them seems to have
made 'seen' finally pass the tests, eh, almost [*1*].
...
Excluded are:

  ab/fsck-unexpected-type
  hn/reftable
  hn/refs-errno-cleanup
  zh/ref-filter-raw-data

...
[Footnote]

*1* Except for "git repack" segfaults only in one of the tests:

  https://github.com/git/git/runs/2669668815?check_suite_focus=true#step:5:2846

Just with a hunch, I further excluded tb/multi-pack-bitmaps from
'seen', in addition to these four topics.  It seems to pass the
whole test suite on both 32- and 64-bit build combinations.

Except that vs-build sometimes fails to download the sdk, that is.

And https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/877379968 tests the
above with hn/refs-errno-cleanup added back.  The usual tests all
seem to pass, even though vs-build fails to download the sdk.
