ci(test): split each pytest job into 6 separated jobs (deepmodeling#3716

)

Split each pytest job into 6 separated jobs in GHA.

Currently, each separated job takes:
- ~2.5 min for installation, which may need to be optimized in the
future;
- ~2 min for setup, which may be a defect and should be resolved in
deepmodeling#3715;
-  4~5 min for tests (expected).
