[Board] Travis usage of GRASS

[Even Rouault]

2 concurrent builds would probably be fine.

(I also see we use s390x and Graviton2 for PROJ. It is sometimes useful 
because of subtle floating point differences that pop up and make the 
regression test suite fail. Easier to catch them at the time they are 
introduced rather that after release when the maintainer of a Linux 
distro which builds for all possible architectures reports a test 
failure in one of those archs to which you don't have easy access to)

For GDAL, our current use of Travis-CI is to test portability on the Graviton2 ARM64 and s390x big-endian platforms (we use github CI for x64 Linux/Win/Mac). For Graviton2, this is more the ARM64 side of things than the Graviton2 specific one, as ARM64 is the architecture of recent Apple hardware and there's no corresponding workers for github CI (not sure if there free CI solutions that can be integrated with github and offer ARM64 support?). s390x/big-endian use cases have probably little market relevance nowadays.
