I've been thinking of this as heterogeneous build agents since the agents can disparate types of jobs but the actual important part is returning to a homogeneous agent pool. So I put the Latin down and called this issue "unified" build agents.

This rollout is happening in a number of stages:

Background: When we first put the CI jobs on the ROS build farm we ran into the issue that one CI job from ci.ros2.org which was the prototype for them is used to having a full build agent's resources rather than 1/4th of a build agent and we ran into performance issues as a result.

ros-infrastructure/ros_buildfarm#839 added support for the heavy job plugin which allows jobs to assign a "weight" which is the number of executors required to host that job.
