ci: Rework use of BUILD_GST_DEBUG and BUILD_TYPE variables

When using parallel:matrix variables, only the value of the
variable is shown in the Gitlab GUI and thus we end up with
a job name resembling "build fedora gcc: [both, true]".

Pass down the whole string/arguments as the matrix variable
values so that we will have a bit more context.
