add ASAN CI "platform"

[spoonincode]

Adds a new "platform" that builds & tests the software with ASAN.

It's possible to enable a single build with UBSAN+ASAN simultaneously, but this further increases both the compile time and run time overhead. So do UBSAN & ASAN separately for now.

And speaking of ASAN build overhead, I was unable to get NP or LR tests to complete in CI without either running out of memory or having some sort of timing problem. I even tried increasing the resources for the run but that still wasn't enough. I think it's likely worthwhile to go ahead with what we've got though as at least we'll still get unit test coverage, and reevaluate whatever the performance problem is later (I was able to complete them successfully locally).

Example run of ASAN failures:

There are some WAVM memory "leaks" that have been known about for 5+ years. It'd be nice to resolve them one day to reenable the leak test.

Is this still true, looks like NP and LR tests are running.

I got a failure in Ubsan CI #2350

Not for asan platform.

I had tried in a different branch to give NP/LR asan more resources, for example by doing for NP,

leap/.github/workflows/build.yaml

but plugin_http_api_test failed (doesn't locally) and it looks like a timing problem,

and for LR doing something similar such as

leap/.github/workflows/build.yaml

but the box fell over running out of memory

maybe giving them even more resources would work.
