We use a fixed container tag of 'latest' so that contributors' forks
don't end up with an ever growing number of containers as they work
on throwaway feature branches.
This fixed tag causes problems running CI upstream in stable staging
branches, however, because the stable staging branch will publish old
container content that clashes with that needed by primary staging
branch. This makes it impossible to reliably run CI pipelines in
parallel in upstream for different staging branches.
This introduces $QEMU_CI_CONTAINER_TAG global variable as a way to
change which tag container publishing uses. Initially it can be set
by contributors as a git push option if they want to override the
default use of 'latest' eg
git push gitlab <branch> -o ci.variable=QEMU_CONTAINER_TAG=fish
this is useful if contributors need to run pipelines for different
branches concurrently in their forks.

Our dockerfiles no longer reference layers from other qemu images so
we can now use 'docker build' on them.
Also reinstate the caching that was disabled due to bad interactions
with certain runners. See commit 6ddc3dc7a8 ("tests/docker: don't use
BUILDKIT in GitLab either"). We now believe those issues to be fixed.
The COMMON_TAG needed to be fixed for the caching to work. The
docker.py script was not using the variable, but constructing the
correct URL directly.

This converts the main build and container jobs to use the
base job rules, defining the following new variables
- QEMU_JOB_SKIPPED - jobs that are known to be currently
broken and should not be run. Can still be manually
launched if desired.
- QEMU_JOB_AVOCADO - jobs that run the Avocado integration
test harness.
- QEMU_JOB_PUBLISH - jobs that publish content after the
branch is merged upstream
As build-tools-and-docs runs on master we declare the requirement of
building amd64-debian-container optional as it should already exits
once we merge.

Extract the container job template to a new file
(container-template.yml) to be able to reuse it
without having to run all the jobs included, which
are mainly useful for mainstream CI.
