Erik Skultety 321293e2a3 ci: Drop the prepare.sh script
The purpose of this script was to prepare a customized environment in
the container, but was actually never used and it required the usage of
sudo to switch the environment from root's context to a regular user's
one.
The thing is that once someone needs a custom script they would very
likely to debug something and would also benefit from root privileges
in general, so the usage of 'sudo' in such case was a bit cumbersome.

Libvirt API for virtualization

Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
