Work around a bug on aarch64[1] where `qemu-img` would hang
about a third of the time when converting images. To be able
to activate the work-around based on the environment, i.e.
only on certain distributions, introduce an environment
variable, `OSBUILD_QEMU_IMG_COROUTINES`, that is set in the
runner and then picked up in the assembler.

Wrap all calls to the various setup functions in the new exception
handler provided by `osbuild.api`. This will make sure that any
exception is properly printed to stderr, as well as communicated
to osbuild in a structured and machine readable way.
Runner are invoked to prepare the execution of stages and assemblers
inside the container. The setup tasks are specific to the distribution
and maybe the version of it, therefore specific runners are used for
each distribution+version combination.
The build the first (most nested) build root, `/usr` is taken from the
host to bootstrap the container. On RHEL, the python interpreter to be
used for software that belongs to the platform is platform-python, as
it provides a stable API. Therefore the RHEL runners should use that
instead of relying on the presence of /usr/bin/python3.6, which might
not be installed and is indeed not installed by default.
Now that stages no longer access the network, drop CA certificate
setup.
In the future, we may want to restrict all network access to the
container, but that requires more work.

We've been using a generic `osbuild-run`, which sets up the build
environment (and works around bugs) for all build roots. It is already
getting unwieldy, because it tries to detect the OS for some things it
configures. It's also about to cause problems for RHEL, which doesn't
currently support a python3 shebang without having /etc around.
This patch changes the `build` key in a pipeline to not be a pipeline
itself, but an object with `runner` and `pipeline` keys. `pipeline` is
the build pipeline, as before. `runner` is the name of the runner to
use. Runners are programs in the `runners` subdirectory.
Three runners are included in this patch. They're copies of osbuild-run
for now (except some additions for rhel82). The idea is that each of
them only contains the minimal setup code necessary for an OS, and that
we can review what's needed when updating a build root.
Also modify the `--build-pipeline` command line switch to accept such a
build object (instead of a pipeline) and rename it accordingly, to
`--build-env`.
Correspondingly, `OSBUILD_TEST_BUILD_PIPELINE` → `OSBUILD_TEST_BUILD_ENV`.
