Qemu-nbd does not perform well with older versions of qemu due to
the lack of writeback caching mode. It also only builds qcow2 images
and there is a desire for raw image support. Finally, qemu-nbd makes
it very difficult to build images concurrently due to the somewhat
opaque nature of how it selects a /dev/nbd# device. losetup, on
the other hand, makes this process very straight forward.

This switches $CLOUD_IMAGES and $RELEASE to the DIB_ namespace so
they will survive future changes to the sanitisation of the build
environment.

The root user tries to `sudo -u stack`, without a tty,
causing fedora+devstack images builds to fail in Jenkins.

ARM doesn't have a generic Linux image due to the soc-specific nature of Linux
kernels today, so we drop the manual installation of that package, replacing it
with a dist-upgrade instead. This involved tweaks to the dpkg and fedora
install-package scripts.

Also add redhat-lsb to Fedora images for lsb_release which should prove
useful as a way to do distro-specific things.
