distributions.conf now supports arbitrary keyring files
...
Any tag ending in ".gpg" will be considered to be the according
keyring file in /usr/share/keyrings/. This is at least needed for some
Ubuntu releases which were eol'ed in the past few years, especially
because Ubuntu split up their keyrings much more finegrained than just
"archive" and "archive-removed-keys".

Many improvements for the release-testing script
...
* Don't abort on first failure, but log it and print a summary at the
end.
* Allow to choose which distributions to test via environment variable
$DISTRIBUTIONS.
* Don't overwrite log files from previous runs. Add a time stamp to
the log file name instead.

Add support for LVM thin provisioning
...
This adds a parameter '--lvm_thin' to xen-create-image that allows you
to specify the thin pool where the thin logical volumes will be
created.
If '--lvm_thin' is not specified, nothing will change and thick
provisioned volumes will be created.
[Committer's note: Code logic taken from
https://github.com/youknow0/xen-tools-thin-provisioning/commit/a6f267ef
and adapted to current code. Needed more than just a rebase. All
trailing whitespace has been removed, too.]
Fixes xen-tools/xen-tools#47 .

Create hooks/artful with new 40-setup-networking-deb-netplan
...
Since Ubuntu 17.10 Artful, Ubuntu has decided to use netplan instead
of ifupdown.
40-setup-networking-deb-netplan has been contributed by Arno and Peter.
(see https://github.com/xen-tools/xen-tools/issues/51#issuecomment-412019510 )
Closes xen-tools/xen-tools#51 .
Since we have to make a variant of hooks/karmic/ as hook/artful/,
rename hooks/karmic/80-install-kernel (which previously was unique to
hooks/karmic/) to hooks/common/80-install-kernel-ubuntu and add
symlinks to it from hooks/karmic/ and hook/artful/.
