The kola test scripts are named by the platforms. The image naming is
also quite difficult to know and remember, e.g., whether "ami" or
"ami_vmdk" is needed for AWS tests and whether it's "vmware" or
"vmware_ova".
To address these problems the vms build stage now accepts the platform
names as format input, and for each platform it will automatically
generate the needed image types to run the tests.
The garbage collect job should also clean up kola resources if a test
job failed to do so due to forced terminator or misbehavior. The
cleanup is done by "ore" which needs credentials like kola.
Run ore from the mantle container image. Unfortunately Docker does not
support Podman's --env-host option and the env vars had to be passed
explicitly. While --env-file=<(env) would work it contains a lot of
variables that cause the container to behave a bit weird.
This was already being done for gcc but not for binutils. Binutils is
also slotted and when we run the sdk (stage3/stage4) job in the CI, the
seed sdk already contains crossdev packages that we may want to update.
The SDK container does not exist for arm64 and is quite heavy. We
currently also resort to a unconditional rebuilding of mantle inside
the SDK.
Use the new mantle container image to run kola tests, and pin its
version through a text file that gets updated by GitHub Actions.
Azure ARM64 instances entered preview, so produce images for them regularly
with every release now. Flatcar has supported Azure ARM64 since the first
release with the 5.15 kernel, which was something like 3139.0.0
this is required to keep "packet" in the SDK linguo while the user can
use "equinix_metal" term.

GCP Pro is failing because hostname is > 63 char:
```
Apr 5 19:52:27.522820 kubelet[1762]: E0405 19:52:27.522513 1762 kubelet_node_status.go:93] "Unable to register node with API server" err="Node \"jenkins-gce-pro-5-91a967ef5450cb932bc5.c.flatcar-212911.internal\" is invalid: metadata.labels: Invalid value: \"jenkins-gce-pro-5-91a967ef5450cb932bc5.c.flatcar-212911.internal\": must be no more than 63 characters" node="jenkins-gce-pro-5-91a967ef5450cb932bc5.c.flatcar-212911.internal"
```
Let's remove `jenkins` and `gce` from the hostname, these
information are not critical for debugging purposes.
Hostname should now looks like
"basic-5-91a967ef5450cb932bc5.c.flatcar-212911.internal" or
"pro-5-91a967ef5450cb932bc5.c.flatcar-212911.internal"
