MNT Remove Python 3.8 since it's end of life (#2135)

The end of life of Python 3.8 has arrived:

https://devguide.python.org/versions/

Therefore, Python 3.8 is removed from CI.

By default, Python 3.11 is now used.

Python 3.12 should be added to the CI matrix now, but that's for a
separate PR.

Also fixed:

The workflow tried to build on top of docker/README.md because globbing
was too broadly defined.

Reduce unnecessary steps to hopefully get disk space usage down, as
GitHub action currently fails with not enough disk space.
