Subject: [PATCH] Test critter's pre-generated models in pull-request CI

The pull-request workflow's build runs a plain install, so critter has no
pre-generated models there and every model is generated at runtime. Pushes
to this repo also run build.yml, which tests against generated models, but
pull requests from forks only get this workflow. Add a job that builds,
runs critter-maven's generate-test-models and then runs the tests without
recompiling, as build.yml does.
