[LTP] [PATCH v2 1/1] ci: doc: Replace Ubuntu bionic with noble

[Petr Vorel]

Replace Ubuntu 18.04 LTS bionic with  Ubuntu 24.04 LTS noble (the latest
Ubuntu LTS).

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS bionic EOL 3 years ago (2023-04). Repositories were
publicly available until now, remove it to fix CI.

Exact error is missing Packages file

    W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/bionic-backports/InRelease  Connection failed [IP: 91.189.91.82 80]
    E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/bionic/universe/binary-amd64/Packages  Connection timed out [IP: 91.189.92.23 80]

which causes gcc not being installed.

Although repository has Packages.gz and Packages.xz (therefore it
should somehow work or it might be GitHub Actions issue) we don't need
to keep bionic (we have older distro openSUSE Leap 42), which we still
use for testing SLE1-SP2 build).

Other option would be to remove 22.04 LTS jammy (previous LTS), but I'm ok to
keep it.

Kind regards,

Clean fix. bionic removal from both the workflow and the doc table is correct.
