[Bug 1923832] Re: Provide generic preinstalled images for arm64, amd64

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

dropping armhf from scope of this bug for now, until grub is SRUed with
working armhf support.

** Summary changed:

- Provide generic preinstalled images for armhf, arm64, amd64
+ Provide generic preinstalled images for arm64, amd64

** Description changed:

- Provide generic preinstalled images for armhf, arm64, amd64
+ Provide generic preinstalled images for arm64, amd64
  
  They should broadly look like ubuntu-cpc cloud image, however they
  should be
  
  1) RAW .xz compressed disk images
  2) use linux-generic, instead of linux-virtual
  3) have CIDATA partition with sample datasource files that one can modify
  4) have nocloud data source to allow login with ubuntu:ubuntu & change password on first login
  5) have ESP
  
  These are very useful for plugfests, booting from a usb-stick / hard-
  drive in place, on bare metal machines.
