Description
## What problem does this solve or what need does it fill?
As mentioned by @BD103 [on the discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1253116136145551441):
> `build` runs `cargo test` for the entire workspace, while `check-compiles` runs `cargo build` for all crates, examples, benchmarks, compile fail tests, etc.
The current names for these CI tasks aren't very accurate, and could use better ones.
## What solution would you like?
Better names! I'm not too particular on what they *should* be named, but perhaps:
- `build` -> `cargo test`
- `check-compiles` -> `cargo build`
So it's more obvious what exactly these tasks are doing.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Search the CI configuration for the `build` and `check-compiles` task definitions and references. Confirm what commands each task runs, rename the tasks to accurately describe them, update all references, and verify the CI configuration remains valid.
