ci: Temporarily disable kata-deploy and GARM tests

Per the decision taken in the 6/27 AC meeting, this PR temporarily
disables kata-deploy and GARM tests until we secure further Azure CI
funding.

In the meantime, I'll transition the GARM tests to free runners and
reenable them to regain that coverage without affecting spending (see
#9940). If it turns out the free runners are too slow, we'll switch back
to GARM.

After funding is secured, we'll reenable the kata-deploy tests (see
#9939).
