[Bug 1903034] Re: RISC-V 64 images support

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

After tweaking seeds; and getting ubuntu-drivers-common SRU into
proposed, one can now build the other two images too

SiFive https://launchpad.net/~xnox/+livefs/ubuntu/focal/any/+build/256884
CPC https://launchpad.net/~xnox/+livefs/ubuntu/focal/any/+build/256885

So this is verified.

Before turning this on, in cdimage we will need to get ubuntu-drivers-
common SRU out, or build with proposed.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Add support to build risc-v 64 cpc & buildd images for LXD, cloud-
  images, buildd and hifive (focal-only) preinstalled image targets.

  [Test Case]

   * Execute a riscv64 livefs build for the buildd subproject of ubuntu-
  base

   * Execute a riscv64 livefs build for the ubuntu-cpc project

   * Execute a riscv64 livefs build for the ubuntu-server preinstalled
  project

   * Build should succeed since we have lxd builders, and the required
  packages to produce the above images.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Care has been taken to modify riscv64 code paths only, and correct
  some mistakes in the common hooks that are used to determine which
  image types to build (i.e. MBR images were built on ARM when they are
  not needed, and AMD64 MBR image is in fact needed!). This changes are
  now tested extensively in hirsute to ensure other image types are
  unaffected, and these images work correctly.
