[github-actions] simplify simulation-1.4 workflow (#12886)

This commit simplifies the Simulation 1.4 workflow by removing the
compiler and architecture matrix. Run-time issues due to compiler
differences or architecture have not been an issue, so testing a single
configuration is sufficient to reduce CI resource usage.

The workflow now uses the default environment instead of explicitly
testing both gcc/clang and m32/m64 architectures.
