[RFE] Enable multi-arch deployments #355

Description

@dtantsur

With IPA downloader gaining support for different architectures, we can now download kernel/ramdisk for x86_64 and aarch64, at least when network boot is not involved.

There are quite a few questions to resolve first:

  1. Should this feature be opt-in? Downloading one more set of kernel/ramdisk pairs is time-consuming.
  2. How do we detect the default architecture? Currently, we only correctly configure x86_64.
  3. Download the aarch64 images from tarballs.opendev.org or from our cache?
  4. Any changes needed to enable network boot? Do we disallow dhcp to be set when this is enabled?
