change the format of the ami image type to vhdx

Prior this commit the ami image type produced raw.xz images. This was bad for
two reasons:

- The upload was broken because AWS doesn't support tar.xz format
- XZ compression is terribly slow

This commit changes the format to vhdx, which is supported by AWS and also
quite quick. See https://github.com/osbuild/osbuild-composer/issues/257
why vhdx was chosen.

Fixes #257
