Previously it was required to call the verify, unit, and integration
scripts in order to build/install dependencies, and libpod. This
wastes time during the (optional) system-testing, since the
actual unit/integration testing is also happening in parallel.
Consolidate only the distribution-specific build steps into the
system-testing script. This way, only the required steps are performed
in their respective (parallel) tasks.

Previously, several magic strings were in place to affect cirrus-ci
operations. Two were buried within scripts. One to optionally
execute system-tests within a PR. Another to avoid re-building
cache-images upon every merge.
Move these magic strings out into the open, buy locating their
logic up-front in the ``.cirrus.yml`` file. This improves
readability and reduces surprise/astonishment at runtime.

Normally, we would not run system-tests as part of PR-level CI, they're
simply too heavy-weight and complex. However, in some instances it may
be desirable to provide a quick feedback loop, prior to release packaging
and official testing. Enable this by executing the system-tests when
a magic string is present in the PR description:
``***CIRRUS: SYSTEM TEST***``

Given frequent merges, it doesn't make sense to rebuild the VM testing
images every time. Instead, monitor the PR title and description for
a magic string, only triggering builds on a match:
***CIRRUS: REBUILD IMAGES***

Occasionally, short-term temporary connectivity problems prevent ubuntu
from updating on GCE. As a workaround, attempt these commands twice.

Previously this was disabled as some package was breaking networking on
GCE after updating + rebooting. This is fixed now, so we should update
packages when building the fedora test VM image.

An invalid GCE value is being passed to packer, preventing it from
building VM images. Fix this, and centralize the definition of the
image name suffix by setting it at ``setup_environment.sh`` call-time,
rather encoding inside packer's `libpod_images.json`. This makes
the value available for use by other scripts.
Also, switch the unique component of the name, to be based on the
commit-sha being tested. This will improve traceability, since the git
history is more permanent than the `CIRRUS_BUILD_ID` env. var. The
later is subject to log-rotation, destroying evidence of the images
source state.

Add a naive python script that's able to connect to IRC and send a
single line of text to the #podman channel. Wrap this in a new
library function to ensure nick-name collisions are unlikely.

Don't waste GCE VM resources for 30-min of testing,
when verify would fail after 3-minutes. This is
the simpelest mechanism to save cloud CPU-time
while GCE is under trial-status (can not set quotas).

Testing podman requires exercising on a full-blown VM. The current
containerized-approach is complicated, and mostly a band-aid over
shortcomings in the other CI systems. Namely, we want:
* To pre-build environments with dependencies to reduce the
setup time needed for testing.
* The ability to verify the pre-built environments are working
before utilizing them for further testing.
* A simple, single set of flexible automation instructions to
reduce maintenance burden.
* Ease of environment reproduction across clouds or locally, for
debugging failures.
This change leverages Cirrus-CI + Packer + collection of shell scripts
to realize all of the above.
