Runner is shutdown due to excessive resource usage

[Enchufa2]

Describe the bug
When setup-r-dependencies has to compile everything (e.g. for r-devel), pak seems to hit some resource limitation, and the runner is shutdown with exit code 143.

To Reproduce
Here's the failing build: https://github.com/r-quantities/units/actions/runs/6089790695/job/16523324348

Further explanation is given in the raw logs:

Expected behavior
The runner should not be shutdown.

This is probably a bug in vdiffr or gcc: r-lib/vdiffr#137
A workaround is to use an earlier version of vdiffr, like this: rstudio/vetiver-r@b5f0692

There isn't much we can do about this here.

An alternative workaround to using an earlier version of {vdiffr} that just worked for me would be to "switch" the gcc version from 11.4.0 to 12.3.0 using something like:

      - name: Upgrade gcc to compile vdiffr without error
        if: matrix.config.r == 'devel'
        run: |
            sudo apt-get install -y g++-12 gcc-12 # probably already installed
            sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-12 60
            sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-12 60
