Previously, we used RAGRS which means that all our data was always replicated
to at least two regions for increased safety. This is cool but expensive, this PR
switches the API to use LRS that just uses one region.

This commit adds and implements org.osbuild.azure.image target.
Let's talk about the already implemented org.osbuild.azure target firstly:
The purpose of this target is to authenticate using the Azure Storage
credentials and upload the image file as a Page Blob. Page Blob is basically
an object in storage and it cannot be directly used to launch a VM. To achieve
that, you need to define an actual Azure Image with the Page Blob attached.
For the cloud API, we would like to create an actual Azure Image that is
immediately available for new VMs. The new target accomplishes it.
To achieve this, it must use a different authentication method: Azure OAuth.
The other important difference is that currently, the credentials are stored
on the worker and not in target options. This should lead to better security
because we don't send the credentials over network. In the future, we would
like to have credential-less setup using workers in Azure with the right
IAM policies applied but this requires more investigation and is not
implemented in this commit.

This file contains a client for Azure Storage API. As we soon introduce the
client for Azure API, we need a distinction here.

The UploadImage method doesn't actually create an image. It creates a Page
Blob. Blob is something like S3 object but in the Azure terminology. Page
Blob means that's optimized for random access and it's the only blob type
that can be used to create images.
This commit cleans up the terminology so it's less confusing.

If the image size isn't aligned to 512 bytes, the Azure API returns very hard
to understand error message. Let's do this check ourselves early so we can
return a sane error.

Fedora 33 and rawhide got an updated version of the azblob library. Sadly, it
introduced a non-compatible API change. This commit does the same thing as
a67baf5a did for kolo/xmlrpc:
We now have two wrappers around the affected part of the API. Fedora 32 uses
the wrapper around the old API, whereas Fedora 33 and 34 (and RHEL with its
vendored deps) use the wrapper around the new API. The switch is implemented
using go build flags and spec file magic.
See a67baf5a for more thoughts.
Also, there's v0.11.1-0.20201209121048-6df5d9af221d in go.mod, why?
The maintainers of azblob probably tagged a wrong commit with v0.12.0 which
breaks go. The long v0.11.1-.* version is basically the proper v0.12.0 commit.
See https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-blob-go/issues/236 for more
information.

This test is not run anywhere because it was surpassed by image tests with
azure boot type which perform more than just uploading a randomly generated
file to Azure. Let's delete dead code.
