nobody should use them, because it's insecure.

Keeping artifacts brings us no benefits and the produced artifacts
should never be used, because they consist of vagrant specific
settings.

For building QEMU/Virtualbox images, checkout the cloud.json file

Increase expire_in to 2d so that we can be sure that there are always fresh VM images available as artifacts

They are built nightly so we'll have a backlog of two VM images available to download at all times.

Going forward, it makes sense to host these raw images as well as there are some use cases for that.
For instance, what if you don't want to use vagrant but instead just use the raw images in qemu directly?

This makes sure there are no race conditions on our workers or during deployment.
We can only use one hypervisor at a time.

We decided to use more specific tags here depending on the type of runner for more runner separation.

Vagrant has experimental support for adding SATA disks. Although this
box does not support that yet (at least for the virtualbox provider,
since no AHCI storage controller with the name "SATA Controller" is
included), it is possible to add another disk. This causes a boot
failure in some circumstances because although the root is set to a UUID
in the kernel cmdline, systemd's fsck still looks for /dev/sda as stated
in /etc/fstab.

Note: The mirror is only used under the bootstrapping process, the
image contains the default mirrorlist with every server uncommented.

Disabling it by masking 99-default.link works, but it "breaks":
udevadm test-builtin net_setup_link, as a default link configuration
isn't created. Breaking net_setup_link breaks cloud-init, which means
the cloud image doesn't work.
So with this commit we disable it the same way as Debian does[1], by
adding "net.ifnames=0" to the kernels command line.
