FYI, the contrib/ directory is generally a place for arbitrary / adhoc
but interesting user contributed files/sources that are not officially
supported deliverables of the project.

IOW, this is not a good home for the official CI scripts.

We already have a .gitlab-ci.d/ directory that looks like it would
be good for this.  Or if that's not suitable, then scripts/ci/ is
a second choice.
