    autopkgtest-virt-lxd: ignore stderr from `[...] image info`
    
    When incus is used by the very first time, it will print a message to
    stderr that will cause this call to fail. I'm not sure whether this
    affects lxd, but in any case, the stdout of `lxc image info $IMAGE`
    is already enough to test what that code is testing.

    CI: suppress lintian warning on usage of skip-not-installable
    
    We run the Salsa CI pipeline so SALSA_CI_LINTIAN_FAIL_WARNING
    enabled, so the tag causes the pipeline to fail. Suppress the
    tag for now.
    
    We currently use skip-not-installable to allow the LXD tests
    (d/t/lxd) to be skipped on Debian, where lxd is not readily
    available, without extra test runtime logic.
    
    I want to drop that usage skip-not-installable, but doing so
    requires some discussion on how move away from the current logic.
    For now, this change will allow CI to pass again.

    doc: explain a common mistake in the architecture field

commit 654da95f04aaaa4e659ddcfbf55d9cac0afa53bc

    Always revert testbed before running individual tests
    
    Do not try to be smart and reuse the testbed for different tests. If
    possible, run each test in a pristine testbed. Reusing the testbed can
    speed up running tests, but we want to prioritize consistency of the
    test execution and principle of least surprise [1] over optimizing test
    runs.
    
    Autopkgtest will still allow running tests on a dirty testbed if the
    virt server does not have the revert capability.
    
    Packages heavily relying on testbed reuse (see e.g. #1063533) should
    consider merging tests, and have individual tests produce useful output.
    
    The new simplified logic allows some renaming (e.g. deps_new -> deps)
    that will hopefully make the code easier to read.
    
    Tests are added for the new logic.
