[3.8] bpo-40548: GitHub Action workflow: skip jobs on doc only PRs (GH-20100)

* bpo-40548: Always run GitHub action, even on doc PRs (GH-19981)

Always run GitHub action jobs, even on documentation-only pull
requests. So it will be possible to make a GitHub action job, like
the Windows (64-bit) job, mandatory.

(cherry picked from commit 4e363761fc02a89d53aba4382dc451293bd6f0ba)
