Without DRM configured in the Linux kernel, the VNC console will show a
screen with the message: "Display output is not active".
Although the on QEMU-KVM AMD64 the issue is not presented, I have
enabled the same flags for consistency.

* Update coreos-cloudinit to latest commit
The latest commit sets the short form hostname that gets fetched from
the metadata provider instead of the FQDN.

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.

Rename sztd to zst and amend the changelog. The zstd binary generates a
compressed file with the .zst extension by default.

This change makes the Jenkins job output openstack images using gzip
compression format. This allows OpenStack users to directly consume images
by simply specifying the URL to the image. Glance will then download the
image, unarchive it and add it to it's catalogue.

The default image group is already encoded in
/usr/share/flatcar/update.conf but it was written to
/etc/flatcar/update.conf as well. This can cause problems when the user
switches channels by forcing an update to a specific release from the
different channel (e.g., through the flatcar-update tool) as it leaves
the file under /etc/flatcar/update.conf out of sync with the new
channel version in /usr/share/flatcar/update.conf.
Since we don't really need to write a specific channel to /etc on new
images as we can rely on the value from /usr, we now leave any possible
overwriting of the value in /etc entirely to the user.
