With the limit of 2 parallel tests, meaning 6 machines, the test time
is ~10 hours which is longer than the GC time. It seems that the
regional capacity is not so limited at the moment and we can try to
increase the number of machines.
Adjust the timeout to reflect the GC time and increase the parallel
tests to 3, meaning 9 machines.
number of test increased. While we don't have yet a way to reduce
testing time, let's increase the timeout.

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.
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"

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.
The entries added in changelog/security/ do not follow our existing
security section in the release notes:
https://www.flatcar.org/releases/#release-3033.2.0
Document the structure and an example to use the right format that we
need for release note generation.
The changelog entries should be directly used for the release notes,
thus they need to be short and hold only information relevant to the
end user, and should be in the markdown bullet point format.
If we use date format of DD-MM-YYYY in changelog file names, the files
will not sorted by date. e.g. 01-12-2021 will come before 25-11-2021.
Use date format of YYYY-MM-DD to make the files sorted by date.
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.
This change has sdk_bootstrap update the origin branch when run from the
main branch, updating the SDK and OS version in 'main' for each SDK
bootstrap build.
Release / maintenance branches have the SDK version set in the
versionfile at release time. But main is never updated.
Updating the versionfile in main when a new SDK is built ensures that
dev branches based on main will also use the correct SDK version (e.g.
in subsequent CI builds).
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.
