We want to ensure that cloud images connect to Red Hat[1] independently
of how the content was acquired (PAYG, BYOS, or marketplace).
This auto-registration feature is already enabled for AWS and this
patch enables it for Azure with the same recommended settings:
Services:
rhsmcertd: Enabled (already done, so not changed in the patch)
/etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf:
auto_registration: enabled
auto_registration_interval: 60 (the default, so not explicitly set)
manage_repos: false
The latter value `manage_repos` is left enabled (the default) in case
the user explicitly requested to have the system subscribed, i.e. the
`RHSMConfigWithSubscription` code path.
Regenerate the relevant test manifests and image information.

We should honour `pkg.CheckGPG` when creating the file inputs for the
rpm stage. This was lost in the transition from v1 to v2 manifests.
Regenerate image test manifests.

Since udev will probe block devices it is advisable to hold a lock
on the device when modifying its partition table or the superblock
of the filesystem (see [1]). osbuild loopback devices do support
this via the `lock` option. Set this option for all operation that
involve changing block device "metadata" that could potentionally
race with udev, such as sfdisk, mkfs, creating a luks2 container
and creating LVM2 volume groups and logical volumes.
NB: osbuild also has its own device inhibition logic to prevent
udev/lvm2 from auto activating devices and in general to limit the
interaction between the host and devices used by osbuild. See [2]
for more information.
NB: this also locks the loopback device in situation where we the
it is strickly not the right thing to do, e.g. when creating a fs
on a logical voume that is located on a loopback device, since in
this case the device we would need to lock is the logical volume.
Sadly, LVM/DM devices are exempt from block device locking. But,
due to a bug in osbuild < 50, the udev inhibitor does *not* work
for loopback devices and therefore we have to use the actual lock
to preven LVM device auto-activation via `69-dm-lvm-metad.rules`.
The change was implemented by adding a new boolean to `getDevices`
indicating if the loopback device should be locked or not. Once
we depend on osbuild 50 we can change the logic in `getDevices`
to only lock the loopback device if the number of devices is one,
i.e. we are working directly on the loopback device.

Add support for building images for the Azure marketplace: add a
new image type "azure-rhui" that can be used to build images
tailored to the Azure marketplace.
Add two sample manifests for 8.5 and 8.6, but note that even the
8.5 is using the 8.6 distro definitions. Also no image-info is
included since `image-info` cannot (yet) handle LVM setups and
the azure marketplace images use the LVM setup.
