Update the CI playbook so that it is able to prepare a system with a
fresh CentOS Stream 8 install, rather than just support RHEL.

We were using quite and old runner on our machines and running into
issues with stalling jobs. Gitlab in the meantime now reliably provide
the latest packaged versions of the runner under a stable URL. This
update:
- creates a per-arch subdir for builds
- switches from binary tarballs to deb packages
- re-uses the same binary for the secondary runner
- updates distro check for second to 22.04
Note this script isn't fully idempotent as we end up accumulating
runners especially during testing. However we also want to be able to
run twice with different GitLab keys (e.g. project and personal) so I
think we just have to be mindful of that during testing.

Changed build-environment.yml to only install spice-server on x86_64 and
aarch64 as this package is only available on those architectures.

XEN hypervisor is only available in ARM and x86, but the yaml only
checked if the architecture is different from s390x, changed it to
a more accurate test.
Tested this change on a Ubuntu 20.04 ppc64le.

ninja-build is missing from the RHEL environment, so a system prepared
with that script would still fail to compile QEMU.

Some HW can run multiple architecture profiles so we can install a
secondary runner to build and run tests for those profiles. This
allows setting up secondary service.

At least the current crop of Aarch64 HW can support running 32 bit EL0
code. Before we can build and test we need a minimal set of packages
installed. We can't use "apt build-dep" because it currently gets
confused trying to keep two sets of build-deps installed at once.
Instead we install a minimal set of libraries that will allow us to
continue.

This introduces three different parts of a job designed to run
on a custom runner managed by Red Hat. The goals include:
a) propose a model for other organizations that want to onboard
their own runners, with their specific platforms, build
configuration and tests.
b) bring awareness to the differences between upstream QEMU and the
version available under CentOS Stream, which is "A preview of
upcoming Red Hat Enterprise Linux minor and major releases".
c) because of b), it should be easier to identify and reduce the gap
between Red Hat's downstream and upstream QEMU.
The components of this custom job are:
I) OS build environment setup code:
- additions to the existing "build-environment.yml" playbook
that can be used to set up CentOS/EL 8 systems.
- a CentOS Stream 8 specific "build-environment.yml" playbook
that adds to the generic one.
II) QEMU build configuration: a script that will produce binaries with
features as similar as possible to the ones built and packaged on
CentOS stream 8.
III) Scripts that define the minimum amount of testing that the
binaries built with the given configuration (point II) under the
given OS build environment (point I) should be subjected to.
IV) Job definition: GitLab CI jobs that will dispatch the build/test
jobs (see points #II and #III) to the machine specifically
configured according to #I.

To have the jobs dispatched to custom runners, gitlab-runner must
be installed, active as a service and properly configured. The
variables file and playbook introduced here should help with those
steps.
The playbook introduced here covers the Linux distributions and
has been primarily tested on OS/machines that the QEMU project
has available to act as runners, namely:
* Ubuntu 20.04 on aarch64
* Ubuntu 18.04 on s390x
But, it should work on all other Linux distributions. Earlier
versions were tested on FreeBSD too, so chances of success are
high.

To run basic jobs on custom runners, the environment needs to be
properly set up. The most common requirement is having the right
packages installed.
The playbook introduced here covers the QEMU's project s390x and
aarch64 machines. At the time this is being proposed, those machines
have already had this playbook applied to them.
