Description

As the `micro_ros_setup` keeps growing and adding new features, so it does its continuous integration system.

This leds to CI executions taking too much time and often slowing the development process.
Therefore, two enhancements are proposed:
* Perform a nightly CI execution, every 24 hours, where all the tests will be run.
* Based upon the platform (host, freertos...) in which the changes are taking place, run only those tests affected by these changes. This can be easily achieved thanks to this repo's folder structure.

Research direction

The issue proposes nightly full-test execution and selective tests for targeted platforms, but names no workflow files, tests, or CI entry points. Start by locating the repository's CI configuration and platform-specific test layout; done means both scheduled full runs and change-targeted runs execute the intended tests.
