Rationale for this change

homebrew-cpp with MacOS was failing with No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen errors when downloading bottles for dependencies (icu4c, boost, etc.).

This appears to be caused by Homebrew's JSON API (ghcr.io) returning stale or corrupted metadata on GitHub Actions runners.

Disclaimer: I can't tell what is the actual cause. Seems to be a bug in Homebrew introduced from the latest MacOS runner image but I don't have any evidence for it. What I can see was that there was an recent update in MacOS images with Homebrew upgraded together:

which I believe are related.

What changes are included in this PR?

Add HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 to the Homebrew test workflow to use traditional formula-based dependency resolution instead of the JSON API.

Are these changes tested?

Tested in https://github.com/ursacomputing/crossbow/actions/runs/20907195327/job/60062808357

Are there any user-facing changes?

No, CI-only.

Can we report this to upstream? (But which is "upstream"? Homebrew? GitHub Runner...?)

Thanks for the PR! I'll merge this so we include it on the 23.0.0 feature freeze which I plan to do soon.
Let's report upstream to follow up.

There weren't enough matching historic benchmark results to make a call on whether there were regressions.
