Migrate Sauce Labs user used in CI testing from snay to cordova

[Tim Brust <ti...@gmail.com>]

Hi there,

I'd like to continue to migrate our testing setup from TravisCI to GitHub
Actions. Currently, our plugins are all running on Travis and test against
VMs on Sauce Labs [1] and are not yet migrated.

They currently use the Travis-encrypted credentials of Alexander ("snay").
Since I do not have those credentials, I can't open an INFRA ticket to add
the access key as a secret to GH Actions.

Luckily, Jan created a user called "cordova" which seems more fitting than
a personal/private user account, too. Also, the credentials are properly
checked into our SVN and could be used for manual testing of specific
device combos. The accounts should be identical as Sauce Labs offers 5 VMs
for open source users for free.

Therefore, I'd like to switch all our Sauce Labs tests to the cordova
account when I start (try) the migration to GH actions for the remaining
repos. As you all know, no ETAs on these tasks :)

Let me know what you think. Ideally I'd like to omit the discussion if
Sauce Labs is needed at all in this thread.

Best,
Tim

I think I've found the main blocker:
GH Actions secrets are not exposed to PRs from forks. :(

There is an open feature request for this though:

Cheers,
Tim

You might go slow on this - somewhere in the back of my head I have
_something_ why we did not follow through with this in the past but I can
not figure out what it was, sorry :/ Hopefully it is nothing and will just
work.
