[PATCH] .gitlab-ci.d/buildtest.yml: Work around htags bug when environment is large

[Peter Maydell]

Sometimes the CI "pages" job fails with a message like this from
htags:

$ htags -anT --tree-view=filetree -m qemu_init -t "Welcome to the QEMU 
sourcecode"
htags: Negative exec line limit = -371

This is due to a bug in hflags where if the environment is too large it
falls over:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-global/2024-01/msg00000.html

This happens to us because GitLab CI puts the commit message of the
commit under test into the CI_COMMIT_MESSAGE and/or CI_COMMIT_TAG_MESSAGE
environment variables, so the job will fail if the commit happens to
have a verbose commit message.

Work around the htags bug by unsetting these variables while running
htags.

Cc'ing stable purely because it's probably useful to avoid flaky
CI jobs when testing stable branches too.
