chore: try switching to cargo nextest to speed up CI builds (#3323)

I started looking at https://nexte.st/ because I was interested in a
test harness that lets a test dynamically declare itself "skipped,"
which would be a nice alternative to this pattern:


https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/4c46490e53076e807fd2068aa68c5a0e636d8b5f/codex-rs/core/tests/suite/cli_stream.rs#L22-L27

ChatGPT pointed me at https://nexte.st/, which also claims to be "up to
3x as fast as cargo test." Locally, in `codex-rs`, I see

- `cargo nextest run` finishes in 19s
- `cargo test` finishes in 37s

Though looking at CI, the wins are quite as big, presumably because my
laptop has more cores than our GitHub runners (which is a separate
issue...). Comparing the [CI jobs from this
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/17561325162/job/49878216246?pr=3323)
with that of a [recent open
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/17561066581/job/49877342753?pr=3321):

| | `cargo test` | `cargo nextest` |
| ----------------------------------------------- | ------------ |
--------------- |
| `macos-14 - aarch64-apple-darwin` | 2m16s | 1m51s |
| `macos-14 - aarch64-apple-darwin` | 5m04s | 3m44s |
| `ubuntu-24.04 - x86_64-unknown-linux-musl` | 2m02s | 1m56s |
| `ubuntu-24.04-arm - aarch64-unknown-linux-musl` | 2m01s | 1m35s |
| `windows-latest - x86_64-pc-windows-msvc` | 3m07s | 2m53s |
| `windows-11-arm - aarch64-pc-windows-msvc` | 3m10s | 2m45s |

I thought that, to start, we would only make this change in CI before
declaring it the "official" way for the team to run the test suite.

Though unfortunately, I do not believe that `cargo nextest` _actually_
supports a dynamic skip feature, so I guess I'll have to keep looking?
