Description

Following the [Trying to fix integration tests PR](https://github.com/vector-im/element-android/pull/4842). After the fixes. The tests can run most of the time and are published manually as a PR comment, splitting the tests to smaller chunks also helped.

Running an emulator from within linux GitHub action server has a lot of problems and limitations (on mac slave is much better)
https://github.com/ReactiveCircus/android-emulator-runner/issues/62

This is a solution but not a stable one. It would be good if we can increase slaves hardware
Other than that we can use another CI/CD tool like **Jenkins**, specific for integration tests so the flow will be as follows:
Github Action triggers Jenkins -> Jenkins run Integrations Tests and Post results back to GitHub
