The pipeline created two tags if an SDK was built, one for the SDK and
one for the OS build (which was a free-standing tag or a local state
that was equivalent to the existing tag of the same name). The
nightlies created update commits on the main branch, even if no change
was done, and on the release branches we lacked these commits.
Create the release tag in the nightly SDK bootstrap already and reuse
it for the nightly OS build. Instead of local state, checkout the
existing tags explicitly. Extend the nightly update commit logic to
cover release branches and detect if we can skip building because no
changes were done.
The os-release file was not only accessible through /usr/lib/ but
also through /usr/lib64 because "lib" was just a symlink.
Now that we split them up into two directories, add a compatibility
symlink in case /usr/lib64 was used to access os-release. A check
is added to also work without the split which is useful if the split
is not done for the SDK at the same time.
The standard location is /usr/lib/modules but on Flatcar "lib" was a
symlink to "lib64". Now this is going to be split up in separate
directories but with compatibility symlinks.
Add the new location to the ignore list.
In our CI most uses of run_sdk_container pass the '-C image' flag, which broke
with the last change, due to unbound docker_sdk_vernum variable. Skip fetching
the image when custom_image is passed.

The nightly SDK image is not pushed to a registry but has to be
downloaded from the build server as tar ball.
Fall back to the tar ball import for a better user experience.
To reuse the ci logic it had to support the "docker" env variable.
The use of the pigz container is not always needed if the user has
pigz available.
Jenkins TAP file parser does not process non-printable ASCII characters
but bails out. This change removes all ASCII < 0x1F, so non-printable
characters are not included in the TAP report.

Sysext images have a compatibility matching mechanism that searches for
the matching OS version or custom sysext level setting. On Flatcar
there is just the OS version set in /etc/os-release until now which
means that sysext images can't easily be used together with autoupdates
that change the OS version.
Define a sysext level for Flatcar so that users can refer to it instead
of the OS version when they have images that don't rely on a particular
Flatcar version.
Here an example of the now possible metadata:
/etc/extensions/NAME/usr/lib64/extension-release.d/extension-release.NAME
ID=flatcar
SYSEXT_LEVEL=1.0
and a symlink /etc/extensions/NAME/usr/lib → /etc/extensions/NAME/usr/lib64
to work around the problem that using lib/ as path destroys Flatcar's
lib → lib64 symlink.
In the future the matching logic hopefully gets more flexible because
now it is just a string comparison. Also, the architecture is not
matched either for now - we should work with upstream to improve this.
