3-36: Add 4.2, 4.1, and 4.0 to the push trigger.

The push trigger only includes branches up to 3.2, while the pull_request trigger includes 4.2, 4.1, and 4.0. This means unit tests run for pull requests targeting these branches but not for direct pushes to them. Since 4.2, 4.1, and 4.0 are active release branches in the repository, they should be included in the push trigger as well for consistency and to ensure tests run on all commits to these production branches.
