workflows/ci: use more extensive Python lint

Make the Python linting more exhaustive, using
https://github.com/reviewdog/action-flake8. The current linting
is limited to syntax errors, and it can also be extended. The
reason to use new action is that there is active development
in comparison to the current action used.
