Subject: [PATCH] chore(ci): right-size acceptance executors

Use Large executors for the x86, ARM, and Alpine acceptance suites after paired CircleCI runs stayed within the 10% wall-time threshold and reduced credit usage.

Keep Windows on Large because the Medium experiment exceeded the threshold. Build jobs, acceptance sharding, and test commands remain unchanged.
