Changes:
- Switch to arch-boxes' base image
- Verify the base image's signature
- Use the new "latest" symlink, instead of parsing the HTML for
  finding the latest arch-boxes image[1]
- Create the base image by using arch-chroot and friends, instead of
  creating a full-blown VM
- Create the VMs from domain XML template instead of virt-clone
- Switch mirror to geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com
- Try to follow "filesystem hierarchy" standards for where to place
  configuration (id_rsa) and "vendor data" (arch-boxes.asc and
  domain_template.xml)
- Misc fixes and cleanups

Upstream now provides a solution for setting the "staging dir" for
fastzip[1].

The runner was accidentally made "specific", which can't be reverted[1].

For some workloads running in a container is too restrictive, ex:
arch-boxes (loop device, filesystem mount, pacstrap) and archiso
(pacstrap). Currently they both run a TCG accelerated QEMU VM, which is
very slow and painful to work with. We should provide a better option to
our users!

This adds a hardware accelerated VM for this kinds of workloads, which
is way faster and you can do whatever you like (mostly)!

Fix #283

archwiki: LocalSettings.php: update URLs and comments

See merge request !608

* Remove www. from archlinux.org,
* Use HTTPS for the license link,
* Update $wgGitRepositoryViewers,
* Update comments referencing paths and URLs.

Add additional pubkey for dvzrv

See merge request !605

pubkeys/dvzrv.pub:
Add additional pubkey, based on the PGP key
`991F6E3F0765CF6295888586139B09DA5BF0D338`.
For chain of trust towards the previously used signing key
`C7E7849466FE2358343588377258734B41C31549`, refer to the output of
`pacman-key --list-sigs 991F6E3F0765CF6295888586139B09DA5BF0D338`.

security-tracker: bump version to 0.13

See merge request !606

Brings support for managing Primary IPs.

There's a bit of a chicken and egg situation here but it's preferable to
manage the server's attributes the same way as all of the cloud servers.

gitlab: include task to prune unused docker images

See merge request !603

After starting a new container with the latest version of GitLab, opt to
remove older docker images so they do not take up disk space needlessly.

Add new mirrors in Seoul and Sydney

See merge request !602

Also tweak the documentation on rebuilderd workers and add runner1.

We do not really want to make all mirrors run mirrorcheck, so make it
conditional based on whether archweb_mirrorcheck_locations is defined.

The sshd role needs to open a firewall hole and will fail if firewalld
isn't present. Also place the wireguard role right after firewall role
because it is needed by promtail further down.

The upstream `sample_config.yaml` is now minimal, so we cannot diff with
it anymore.

archwiki: LocalSettings.php: give registered users the 'writeapi' right

See merge request !601

Adding/removing pages from the whitelist when using the Vector skin requires the write API now.
Without this, regular users get this error:

    You're not allowed to edit this wiki through the API.

archweb: use a whitelist for files in /iso/

See merge request !595

Allow only .sig, .torrent and .txt.

This is done to prevent downloading files such as https://archlinux.org/iso/latest/arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz-linux.
