Bug description:
  Provide generic preinstalled images for arm64, amd64

  They should broadly look like ubuntu-cpc cloud image, however they
  should be

  1) RAW .xz compressed disk images
  2) use linux-generic, instead of linux-virtual
  3) have CIDATA partition with sample datasource files that one can modify
  4) have nocloud data source to allow login with ubuntu:ubuntu & change password on first login
  5) have ESP

  These are very useful for plugfests, booting from a usb-stick / hard-
  drive in place, on bare metal machines.
